    Sense and technology
    Be a responsible party-goer with the Blood Alcohol Calculator that is on offer on Android and iOS (`55) but from different creators. Track your drinks by entering your statistics and adding drinks as you consume them. Within the timeframe, the app will graph your intoxication levels and help estimate when you’ll be sober again.

    Soothsayer
    New Year’s Oracle is a fun way to ring in 2014 according to ancient Roman tradition. Pour molten lead (virtually) into cold water and try and interpret the form as a hint into the future. Their in-built guide will help figure out what the symbols means — a wave-like shape could mean travels and books could mean more studying. Details: oracle.christoph-just.de
