(July 16) -- Paul the Psychic Octopus may be leaving the Sea Life Aquarium in Oberhausen, Germany, for the Madrid Zoo, but more importantly, he could also be headed right into your iPhone.



Yes, the cephalopod soothsayer who became a media sensation during the World Cup by correctly predicting Germany's seven victories and Spain's win in the championship match has gone digital. And now he's ready to tell you if it's going to rain or shine tomorrow, if the Miami Heat will win the next nine NBA titles, or whatever other critical information you need to know.



Brazilian developers uTouch Labs released Ask the Octopus on July 14, an app that allows a cartoon version of Paul to help users make decisions -- be they basic or mind-boggling. Simply enter two possible options, and the eight-legged oracle will make a choice, hopefully guiding your life in the right direction.
