Wow, I need to get going with these apps! The shazam app is kind of appealing (Music recognition app). The game & fun apps are the ones that I would probably use the most (the ones that are useless for business). They are all getting more and more brilliant and making a lot of ordinary people inventors. Time to get a new iPhone!!!

I was on the train yesterday and the guy next to me pulled up an ap for Red Box – he had pre-registered with credit card and his “home” location. He then reserved the movies he wanted to check out on the way home – Red Box reserved them for him – and when he got to the machine he swiped his credit card and out they came. I use aps constantly – its the new way of the world.

Today there is an app for anything you can imagine. I recently bumped into StylishGirl, an app that acts as your clothing and accessories organizer. All you need to do is snap a photo and file it into tops, bottoms or accessories (of course this can take some time). Once your closet is ready, you can then piece items together to create outfits, simply swap out as many times as you wish until you have the outfit just the way you want it. You can also track your outfits on a calendar including specific dates and where you wore it. When it comes to packing for your next trip, this app makes packing a lot easier so you never have to worry about over packing!

Never thougt about having a digital closet…

I love the more useful apps that keep sprouting… I am just learning how to use them. afterall I use a blackberry and the app world is sorta new to blackberry users. I do like Yelp but when they started charging for premium placement it lost some creditbility to me. I still use it. I use the yelp.com com app, along with ratings and reviews left on google and yellowbook.com for locations.

I’m addicted to mobile apps. They make my life so much easier because its such a useful resource. My favorite app is Yelp. Even though its both a mobile and computer website, its really helpful when I’m scoping out a place to eat, even for shopping for that matter. I do take into consideration that a lot of people have differences in palate and taste however i still like to read the reviews to see what everyone recommends before i dine at a restaurant or want to go shopping. Additionally, a lot of times Yelpers provide other misc info. like where to park, the aura and atmosphere,price range etc. I appreciate random info like that because it allows me to perceive what i should expect from such a place. I practically use it every time I plan to go out. It’s like a necessity. Additionally, I’ve become a Yelper as a result of it. The convenience and availability of the information is really amazing. I don’t know what i’d do without it.
