New Year's Oracle 2013
by Ralf-Ruediger Goritz
Now that your party is in full swing, it is time to bring out a little entertainment. In Austria and Germany, it is tradition to celebrate the New Year by telling your fortune using lead pouring. This process,"das BleigieBen," involves heating and melting a small piece of lead on a spoon then pouring it out. The vague shape taken by the lead is then read as an oracle of the coming year much like tea leaves. Celebrate this fun tradition with others using New Year's Oracle, an app that simulates the entire process. Using realistic looking tools you may pour one of 12 included pieces of lead. Then use the included lexicon to determine the shape and your fortune for the coming year!

iBubbly
by nerdgames
The party toasts should include everyone. How about the designated driver? Or perhaps your guests do not drink but they still want to toast in the New Year? iBubbly is a fun and clever app that realistically simulates pouring and toasting champagne! It has two modes, Social Networker and Single Sipper. Social Networker allows you to pour into others iPhone glasses from a bottle complete with fizzing sound. The filled glasses can be tapped for a realistic clinking sound after a toast! Tipping the glass back will lower the amount thus allowing you to "drink in" the toast. We love this app! It has all the fun without the hangover.

Come get me
by AlldayApps
Taxis can be a impossible to find come New Year's Eve. Avoid the lines with Come Get Me. The app easily allows you to send a text complete with location map to a friend or relative who can pick them up. We loved how easy this app was to use and how it eliminated the need to give complex directions to the driver, a task which could be very confusing after drinking. This app would also make a great safe-keeping app for teenagers and those who go biking and hiking. In an emergency, this app could be a life saver.
