Stupid tricks for your iPhone and you

Some might say there are no stupid tricks—only tricks that are, say, less smart than other tricks. I disagree. Take a look at our fearless leader, Editorial Director Jason Snell, as he demonstrates for you—in full color and sound, no less—the full range of somewhat ridiculous tricks that you can do with just your iPhone and a little bit of time.

Covered in Jason’s video are a workaround for syncing notes to your iPhone, creating fake “podcasts” for more flexible syncing, and how to use your iPhone as a flashlight (that was my contribution to this repertoire, and it’s one that I have to admit I find myself using pretty frequently—especially when I can’t find my key).

All that and more are laid bare for you in the latest Macworld video. So hit the link above and prepare to be, well, stupefied.
