Phone apps

Well the genie is out of the bottle now. Phone apps are here to stay. I at first thought that it would be just another FAD but I admit I was wrong.

Let me start out by saying that I am an average mom. I am over 25 and under 60. I have a college degree but I am by no means a 'techno geek'. Just ask my boys. But what I have in common with all of you is that my hands are always full. Figuratively and literally. If I can have one less thing to carry I am a happy woman. If my purse weighs less than 10 lbs. I am ecstatic.

I have an iPhone because my brother, who is a 'techno geek' convinced me to give up my beloved blackberry. I hated him for 6 months until I discovered that I could read books on my iPhone. Like most avid readers, I carry a book in my purse at all times. So with my book app, one less thing in my purse. Game apps came next. Not for me, but for the kids.( RIGHT ;0) it would keep them busy when we had to wait in line or at restaurants. Then twitter and facebook joined the app parade. Now I don't need my computer as much. I now have over 20 apps on my phone, 3 of which I actually paid money for.

The long and short of it is..There's an app for that. What ever it is, there's an app for that. So I have to conclude, apps are definitely FAB!
