The best of the web is in your hand.
And you can even shake it
for a random, cool link.
Buy the iReddit app for just $.99 and you'll never see an ad on it. It comes with a ton of sound effects for your shaking pleasure and will let you aggregate up to 500 reddit subscriptions.

I have been captivated by the updated iReddit. It's so much better than prev versions.

While in Serendipity mode, you will keep getting fed random stories to view/vote on every time you hit the "Hit me" button or shake the iPhone. Clicking "No More!!!" will take you back to regular mode. Much like UrbanSpoon, I could see this Serendipity mode becoming addicting. It's a bit like a completely random StumbleUpon (a website discovery tool), but again, using the iPhone's accelerometer.
Such a feature seems perfect for a social voting site, where users are often looking for new and interesting stories.
Not only does iReddit has all your favorite Reddit functionality: view stories, vote, comment, share, explore different subreddits, and save links for later, it also lets you 'shake' to get a new story; an idea, Ohanian says, that has been "floating around ever since I saw the Urbanspoon app."
$1.99? I've spent more on worse on the iPhone. Sold.

A particularly interesting feature is the Serendipity mode, which lets you you browse random Reddit stories without clicking; simply shake the iPhone and you'll be served a brand new link.
