Where's My Water?

I came across Where's My Water? when the App store reached some milestone and made several apps available for free. I thought why not and downloaded them all. To this day, Where's My Water? is the only app that I still use.

Twitter: Is the Update Really an Update?

Twitter is by far my favorite social network because it leaves little room for people to post rants and makes interacting with celebrities and your favorite companies much easier. If you're an avid Twitter user you've probably already downloaded Twitter or another app like it for your iPhone or Android, but for today's blog I'm focusing on the official Twitter app.

Tumblr: Great on a Browser, Not So Great on an App

Tumblr, tumblr, tumblr, where should I start with this website? It's awesome, time consuming, full of politically correct hippies and people who are crazy good at creating gifs. Now let me talk about the app. It's slow, there's nothing really to look at and it's slow.

QuizUp: Makes Taking Quizzes Fun Again

It seems as if one of the newest crazes is QuizUp, a simple trivia game with a topic for everyone. I first discovered QuizUp when I saw it appear several times on my Twitter feed, the curious consumer of all things technology in me decided to check it out. I signed up quickly, chose to play the quiz on logos and have been doing so ever since.

Dots: Who Does It Best?

Who doesn't love a game of dots? It's quick, simple and can be played by all ages. In high school I remember creating boards in my notebooks and I'd have one for almost every class. Now I imagine high schoolers have either moved on from this simple game, or they play it on their phones by themselves.

Recently I found myself browsing the Google Play Store and was surprised at how many variations of the dot game that I found. I went ahead and downloaded the most fun looking one and ended up with Dots by Turbo Mobile.

Padgram: Instagram for Your Tablet

Woo! I've made it to day 3 and today I'm going to review Padgram, an Instagram viewer for your iPad or tablet.

Two summers ago I became part of the smart family when I purchased my first smartphone and naturally I had to jump on the train by downloading all the cool apps that my friends had. Instagram was no exception. This past May after I graduated from college I received an iPad mini and when I was going to download Instagram I realized that there was no tablet version of the app. (BOO) So I did a little searching in the App store and discovered Padgram.
