Just a year after the iPhone app store opened its Internet doors, nearly 60,000 iPhone apps roam the street. Some have a place to go because they serve a purpose. Others just sort of wander around looking for their meaning in life.
While not all iPhone apps are worth mention, here are a few that will improve your world.
1. Hey Where Are You? Although you might not want to be trailed by the government and bill collectors, letting friends and family know where you live has its advantages. With this iPhone app, users ask and answer the question, “Hey, where are you?” Keep them up to date of your activity and location, and keep track of other friends and family members as well. Hanging out at the Jupiter for a few beers on a Friday night? Let the crowd know, and soon you’ll have a crowd. Kick it better by helping friends know where they can find you. This is one of those iPhone apps that make it easier to connect.
2. Print and Share. Let’s face it. Most of our printing ambitions are mere pipe dreams. Yeah, I’ll get you that photo of us on spring break as soon as I get home, happen to remember to find you in my millions of computer files and actually hit print instead of falling asleep on the couch in a drool of late night TV. The best intentions usually get put off into infinity unless we act on them right away. With the Print and Share, your iPhone tells your computer at home to get busy printing before you even get home. It’s one of the better iPhone apps that help you get it done today instead of putting off until tomorrow.
3. Read it later. How often do you come across the most interesting web page when your hands are already full? One of the reasons the Internet can be such a big time sucker is what we discover on accident. Come across an interesting web page, and you might not have time to read it, even though you need to learn and probably won’t be able to find the page again. Like many of the iPhone apps available for easier information, Read It Later allows you to save pages to your iPhone so you can check out that article on global warming or bamboo bikes from your cell phone as you ride the bus.
