APP: Trafficmasters

26/JAN/12

Trafficmaster, I am happy to say is a client. While we can’t say what we have done for them, I am pleased to tell you about their app for the iphone. Trafficmaster gives live time traffic info showing where there are problems on the roads. On a map you see directions speed markers. I have set the data to refresh every 5 minutes, but you can set it to every minute! This is a very useful little app that has saved me a few frustrations, and is a real bargan.

APP: Photo 365

25/AUG/11

A photo is worth a thousand words. This app is new for the iPhone and iPad, but the concept has been out there foe a while. Take a photo for each day of the year. You can add a caption to go with it, I would recommend always write something no matter how insignificant.

This concept for an app is great and in my opinion one of the best, it has a great feel good factor. Start using it.
