A friend of mine recently got a brand, spanking new iphone and she is obsessed with it. I mean, more obsessed than I am, if that is possible. But, she is in the market for a few good apps. So, I thought I’d use this space to recommend some of my favorites to her…and to recommend some that I know other people love…and to open the floor for commenters to chime in with their faves!
1. Tweetdeck and Facebook.
For the social media lover. I prefer tweetdeck to tweetie (but I have friends who swear by tweetie 2. which is far superior to tweetie 1) because I need the columns. I need to be able to only look at my groups such as “people I really care about” ha!
2. What’sApp. For the Canadian with friends who don’t live in Canada. This one is a winner, for real. Basically, this is like text messaging…without having to pay for text messaging. It’s amazing…because Canada to [insert other country here] text messaging packages BLOW.
3. Words With Friends.
For the gamer. Oh, this one is addictive, folks. And if you have it, I am alimartell. Start a game with me! It’s scrabble-ish in nature…but really, the most fun part is seeing what non-words they let you use! (As far as games go, I also like Phase 10, Spider and Moxie)
4. IMDB. For the movie lover. Do I really need to say more about this? I spend way too much needing to consult my imdb.
5. Tipulator. For the mathematically challenged. I use this every single time I tip.
6. BeeJiveIM. For the instant messenger. I use this primarily for google talk (or gchat…or whatever you call it) but you can also add msn messenger and facebook messenger and aim or yahoo messenger and a whole bunch more. This one is great.
7. Flashlight. For when you really just need one. Especially in my neighborhood where there are no streetlights. This little app comes in super handy.
8. Wikipanion. For when you REALLY need to look something up. And for me, this is often.
9. Bump.
For exchanging contact information easily. I LOVE this app. Gone are the days of having to manually type in a person’s name and number(s) and emails address and vitals. You can just bump iphones and there you go…their info, or any info they have on their phone, transfers right onto your phone. Brilliant!
10. Photoshop.com mobile. For the photographer. I love this one. I actually also added FlashZoom to my iphone because I have a 2G and I wanted a flash and a zoom for my fairly crappy iphone camera. But, playing around in photoshop on my iphone with my pictures? surprisingly fun….and I’ve gotten some surprisingly non-crappy photos! Whee!
1842: Jean Philippe made the first clock that can be rolled up and attached by a crown – something that all mechanical watches are now.
I’ve one problem though. The photographs doesn’t come up. – even the homepage has the pictures missing.
There are a lot of crappy apps and thanks for your useful lists! May I just include Intuition (www.iconapps.com) aka “mom’s personal assistant”; it is a schedule organizer app that is really useful and free. My favorite!
Cheap Fashion Handbags are an important accessory in person. Usually much longer than most women prefer to keep their bags with them all the time when they are away from home, whether for leisure or for any other purpose. Women often assume that they are sensitive to their handbags as they are for shoes and other fashion accessories, because they feel protected in the exercise of their pockets.
A good post indeed! That is the sunny side of one’s writing, you publish inside a lucid method and I have no problem to realize what you have stated, even though I’m a novice. Maintain the beneficial get the job done going by continue blogging new and entertaining posts.
Yahoo surely committed a big mistake in repeatedly snubbing Microsoft. they probably made another one by missing out on the Groupon deal. I hope they have some kind of a secret solid scheme because i’d hate for it to come down to 1 monster controlling the online universe.
While the iPhone incorporates a wonderful style, serious flaws keep this from being what a smartphone is supposed to be. We are talking about a smartphone here, not an everyday cellphone to which everyone seems to use as comparisons.
More and more people are becoming interested in the idea of mixed martial arts.
Kevin richardson has been a fan of mixed martial arts competition ever since ufc 3, when 600-pound sumo wrestler emmanuel yarborough was beaten by keith hackney.
Iphone apps generate a lot of buzz in this apple world of ours, whether they’re useful, entertaining, offensive or just plain expensive.
Wikipedia has become an invaluable research tool for college students, and Wiki Mobile puts this massive encyclopedia in your palm. This paid app makes it easy to browse Wikipedia in 32 languages
The period after Labor Day marks the official start of the political season, so Fox News believes it’s the right time to introduce its first paid app that will provide premium politics-related news and opinion for Apple’s iPhone.
Bummer my xbox just crapped out. sorry if I’m rambling I just need to vent.
I’m in a dilemma, I do not know if I should purchase a digital media player for my girl or perhaps purchase an iphone4.
In my opinion you are not right. I am assured. I can defend the position.
Have you seen that new Harry Potter Movie yet? I heard it is going to be the best harry potter movie!
I truly love movies I weren’t able to really live without…
I really love movies I couldn’t really live without…
I truly love films I couldn’t really live without…
Always a pleasure reading a post of yours.

Thanks!
I have Tweetdeck, Words with Friends (I’ll start a game with you!) and I NEED imdb, wikipanion and bump. But my all-time fave and most-used iPhone app is Bejeweled 2. You can play facebook bejeweled blitz and it updates your score on FB. Also: waaaay higher scores with the iPhone app.
Vicky’s comment gives me an idea…I think I’ll post MY top 10 iPhone apps this week too!
My list is completely different…I wrote it yesteray and will be posting in this week (tuesday?). PS..how do I follow you on twitter? Im momwhoruns
