Right now, I’m traveling the US on a three week tour of the West Coast. Though I brought my trusty MacBook Pro along, I installed a fair number of apps on my iPhone so that I could get to them from my fingertips at any time.
Here’s what I found really handy. (Of course I didn’t install ALL of them! Some are based on findings and recommendations by friends). They’re my unbiased reviews of apps I’ve found. Do feel free to share with others if you have favorite apps of your …

If you’re not from the US and have already started an iTunes account based in your own country, you probably know you’re treated as a second rate iTunes citizen. Some applications, podcasts, etc… are just not allowed simple because we’re not “based in the US of A”.

In a humorous article I saw recently in PC World, I thought I’d extract the fictitious profiles of 2 of the greatest tech innovators of all time and share them with you. They put a smile on my face, something we all need on a Monday morning, huh?
Here’s Bill Gates of Microsoft fame – note the snide comments to Steve Jobs. Looks at the contextual advertisement that appeared on the right hand column too!
