My top 5 iphone apps
My good friend Joel Hughes recently tweeted for favourite iphone apps for his wife’s iphone (she had one for her birthday. Nice and Happy Birthday Jess). So it made me take a look at the dozens of apps that I’ve downloaded and which ones I currently use, and like.
iTalk: I know the latest iphones have a built in app for voice memos but i find it a bit non-intuitive for an Apple app and much prefer Griffin Technology’s iTalk. It’s fast to get going, simple to start and pause and has selectable recoding qualities. And the best bit; it syncs wirelessly to your mac. Now why can’t all apps do that?
Tweetdeck: For all us twits that feel the need to regularly tweet, an app for one’s iphone is an essential item. I’ve been through many during the past year and only one gets close to providing a mobile service that matches a laptop/workstation experience. What’s more, Tweetdeck is free. Go and download it and try it out.
Evernote: Anyone that doesn’t use Evernote should have their head examined. It’s one of the best web-based tools around and it’s even better when mobile. As well as saving all your great ideas when you’re out and about, you can recover all the notes you’ve saved and tagged. This app alone saves me hours of time every week in no longer having to search through scraps of paper for those important little notes.
Stanza: A new entry this past month, Stanza is more than just an ebook reader, it’s a gateway to a whole world of ebooks, including thousands of free ones. You can search, download and read ebooks straight from your iphone just as you would a Kindle (if you had one).
iSki: From this years favourite to last years favourite. iSki is a must for all ski nuts. If you’re on the piste or of to the piste you’ll need to understand the local weather conditions. If you’re stuck at home with nothing to do, iSki gives you instant access to hundreds of webcams all over the world so even when you can’t be there, you can see what you’re missing.
So those are mine: What’s your favourite app?
