Cool Apps You Should Know

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share with you a few apps that I absolutely love. Like most people I'm slightly obsessed with my phone and tablet, I'm always checking for new apps to try and experiment with.

Being the bargain hunter that I am all these apps are completely free! So without further adieu, here are a few of my very favourite apps that you should have!

Money Tracker
Seriously, this quickly becoming my favourite app for keeping track of my money ins and outs. Using a simple layout it allows you to create folders and categories, so you see where it all goes and where you could make savings! Perfect, right!

Duolingo
Google Translate is great but the long term goal is to speak all those languages yourself. Duolingo is convenient education tool and cost absolutely nothing. And is great if your into travelling or simply just want to learn something new, plus is fun. 

Show Box
This is amazing! I don't always have time to watch latest of Empire or Games of Thrones but using this app its doesn't matter. All the episodes and movies are there in abundance, which of course makes me a very happy bunny. Definitely one of my favourite apps ever!!!

7 Minute
This app has just become part of my daily routine. I really like this app because its not too light and not too ridiculous that I want to give up. I feel this right amount of push for a beginner and you can work it in a way that works for you. 

8 Tracks
This app is basically a collation of different playlist created by other user or yourself. What I really like about it is that it doesn't have those annoying adverts that YouTube has and the more you listen to playlists, it will start to suggest playlist for you. And so far the suggestions have been spot on! A must have app on tablet or phone.

Hope you guys enjoy the apps! I'd love to hear about all of your favourites in the comments down below!

Take care x

Favourite Links

Hi everyone, 

Its Valentine's Day...*sigh* this day really bugs me. We all know that Valentine's Day is a capitalist con, the over crowded restaurants, 'premium priced' roses and the pressure for couples to feel forced into pretending they like each other. On the other hand singletons are encouraged to feel unworthy as the only thing in their letterbox is a pizza flier.

Its all a lie and incredibly false; a person's love should not have to be topped up with annual offerings of overpriced pink and red tat. Anyhoo this post is about my new little series 'Favourite Links' not 'VD'. This won't happen every Friday, but I thought it would be a nice way of sharing links that like and that might be of you too.

Put The Phone Down

Hey everyone,

Someone said to me the other day that the average person can't go over a day without interacting with a digital device. From the moment I wake... To the moment I go back to bed... and all the hours, minutes and seconds in between,  I'm always with my phone. I'm sure that's true for most people. Admittedly I'm not that bad, and I often forget or am too busy to reply or check social media straight away.

The rise of mobile technology is increasingly turning us into an ‘always on’ and ‘always elsewhere’ culture. And this change has profound consequences for the very thing that motivated the innovation in technology in the first place: Connecting with others.

Seriously, these days the back of my friends phone faces me more then my friend who was actually talking to me. We see elements of this video everyday, quite the eye opener!

Anyhoo just thought I'd share with you, hope your having a good week.

Bye!

LITS

Hey everyone,

Hope your all doing well. Things for me have gotten really busy again, I haven't had much time so a social life and fun, but I’m not complaining. Last weekend I did to have a little bit fun time at the London International Technology Show (LITS) showcasing the latest in 3D technology, computing, tablets, mobile and stuff. There were demonstrations and guests speakers all the things to full your geeky needs and Apple hall of fame timeline.

The 3D games and movies were really cool, but my eyes did start going trippy after a while.

Yeah I know I look a bit of a mess here hehehe

free tech mags woo hoo!

This was the first year so it wasn’t that good but I’m sure that well improve in time, it would been nice if they showcased cameras and stuff, instead of boosting the things we’ve heard of but can’t afford. Oh well it kept me entertain of a while.

laters! :)
