It's hard to believe that only a year after the iPhone app store opened its doors on the web that nearly 60,000 iPhone apps have been created. Some serve important purposes. Others aren't worth the battery juice they'll sap.
Here are a few iPhone apps worth noting. Try a few on for size and see how they fit.
1. Hey Where Are You? While nobody likes to have everyone knowing what they're doing all times, this iPhone app helps you get connected to important people like family and friends to let them know what you are doing. Asking and answering the question, "Hey, where are you?" users can keep each other up to date on their comings and goings. It's a lot easier to get the crowd out to happy hour if they know you are already there? Like many of the iPhone apps available, this one helps you stay connected.
2. Print and Share. Most printing intents end up as pipe dreams. Sure, I'll get you that photo of us at the beach, as soon as I get home, power up the computer, find the photo in billions of computer files, hit print and then actually remember to do all that instead of falling asleep watching Leave It to Beaver reruns like I always do. The best intentions usually end up shelved unless we act right away. With the Print and Share, your iPhone is connected right to your printer. Have it start printing before you even get home. It takes a few steps out of the procrastination process, delivering results even before you make it back to your pad. It's one of the better iPhone apps available.
3. Read it later. Usually, we find the most interesting material on the web when we least have time to read it. That's why the Internet can be such a great source of time suckage as we find stuff we need to learn but always at the wrong time. Like many iPhone apps that make information easier, Read it Later allows you to save these web pages in your phone for further browsing. Don't have time to read about tips for a bigger tax return during the middle of a big deadline? Read it Later allows you to save pages to your iPhone so you can read it at more convenient times, while you're waiting for your hair care appointment or stuck at the DMV with nothing to do.
