Free Counter app, does what it says!

Here's another free app from Ovi Store released over this weekend.

Tic Tac Toe for Nokia 5800 & Nokia N97, freeware from Ovi Store

Here's the newest freeware game from the Ovi Store for our much loved Symbian S60v5 phones.

I quite like this game, its appealing graphics and smooth finishing are good. However, the AI isn't the smartest and it's pretty easy to beat him and there's no options to change the difficulty level. However, for a freeware its all good!

Nimbuzz for Nokia 5800 enables Google Talk, Skype, MSN, Yahoo, AIM, ICQ, Myspace, Orkut, Facebook & Jabber on the Nokia 5800

Hey all,

This is one of the top free applications available for the Nokia 5800 today!

Not only does it allow you to connect to pretty much any Chat providers it allows you to connect to multiple Social Websites like Facebook & Myspace.

The best feature for me personally was Skype for the Nokia 5800, as there is no native client for s60v5. I tried calling over wifi and it worked perfectly.

Paint Pad, a Sketch pad app for Nokia 5800

This app is basically a Paint like application, which lets you make your creations starting with an existing image, or a blank sheet or from a picture taken from the camera.
