I would like to share which mobile apps I use most and why I love them:
1. Tumblr
I am a huge fan of Tumblr. It's very easy to use and so much fun. I love observing and finding cool photos, especially about food, fashion, interior design, architecture, and travel. It gives me inspirations whenever I use the app: what do people love, buy, and do these days. I usually do Tumblr through my phone because it's just easier and faster to reblog and "heart" the contents. One thing that I don't like about this mobile application is that when you click to go to an individual's tumblr blog, each one has a different layout and design so it's hard to scroll down or see photos that way. It's fastest to see photos from dashboard instead of from a member's blog. Also, gif files are slow in loading so it's better to see them on your computer than your mobile.
2. Instagram
This is another fun photo app. I covered Instagram Marketing for small businesses in my previous post (http://tipsforasuccessfulentrepreneur.blogspot.com/2012/02/instagram-marketing-101.html), and it's so easy to use! you just upload your photos from your mobile and share them with others. You get to see which photos are popular today, and your dashboard shows photos from the people you follow. Like Tumblr, it allows me to get inspired by amazing photos, and people on Instagram are usually very nice too!
3. Kindle
Kindle app is so cool! especially an iPad application since I like to read ebooks on a big screen. I purchase books on Amazon and read it on my iPad. Simple and easy. You can make highlights, bookmark a page, and look up words on a dictionary with one click. It's just really convenient to use. I tried Nook app but Kindle is so much easier to use! Nice UI, too. You can download a Kindle app on your phone too and read ebooks on subway or bus, but I think an iPhone screen is too small; it just makes my eyes soar whenever I try to read ebooks on my phone.
4. Wunderlist
Wunderlist is a great app to organize your daily and weekly duties and create a to-do list. You can sync it on your iPhone, mac, and iPad, so it's a convenient solution for me. I love the UI and plus it's free unlike most other utility apps!
5. StumbleUpon
StumbleUpon iPad application is so cool because it allows you to discover contents just like when you use StumbleUpon on your computer. As you "stumble" your interests, you get to discover cool contents you want to scrap and keep on your page. I stumble food and fitness contents and it's a great way to find recipes and exercise/health tips!
6. Zite
Zite is a cool personalized magazine application that allows you to read news that interest you. You choose your preferences and it gathers news from many newspapers online and presents them nicely. I read news on Zite daily on topics like entrepreneurship and social media. I personally think it's the best mag app out there.
7. Between
I believe this application is created in Korea but used globally. This app is made for couples to share (privately) their photos, chat, remind important days like anniversary, and leave short memos. No one else can see those contents except the couple themselves. You can do the same with your bff too. The app is just so much fun!:)
Other apps I use daily:
Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare...but who doesn't love these apps? Since almost everyone uses them, I didn't feel like I needed to explain them further:).
