I'd just like to take a brief moment to mention my friend Mike's new iPhone application, iMenorah! It's the perfect app for anyone celebrating Chanukah far from home.

I don't own an iPhone, and I'm not Jewish, but I tried it out on a friend's iPhone and it was really well done. Good interactivity, well polished graphics and animation, and Mike singing the blessings at the end is just classic. Oh, and they are donating some of the proceeds from sales to a San Francisco Jewish charity.

For $1.99 it's a great deal.
