What I am Using

Device:  Samsung Focus

Apps:

  • Twitter – Carbon – very nice twitter app and pinning saved searches to the home screen is extremely handy
  • Facebook – actually I use the People Hub my Personal Tile much more than the facebook app.  02.15.2012 Updated app is well done.
  • Games
  1. Hexic Rush – Love the XBox Arcade version and the WP7 version is just as addictive
  2. Angry Birds – I tried to resist but can’t stop now, just wish we would see more levels; a few new levels did come out.  The final section has a facebook logo, but the episodes are near impossible.
  3. Plants vs Zombies – not bad.
  4. SubAttack!
  • After using the Weather Channel app since release I have started using Amazing Weather.  The live tile is great and the animation is very slick and dare I say beautiful.  One annoying issue is that when you open the app it stops the media player.
  • USAA – Great bank and quality phone app
  • 4th and Mayor – better than even the new FourSquare native app.
  • TWit
  • RSS Reader: Went from RSSToGo to NextGen Reader.  I am addicted to Google Reader and NextGen does a great job of synching with and provides much cleaner sharing options.
  • Pass; still on the fence with this type of app.  Super Password is another one I am trying.  I tried 1Pass and Sky Wallet but didn’t stick with them.  I didn’t think I would want a desktop or other method for data input and backup but the more I use Pass the more I wish there was that extra layer.
  • TV Show – cool little application for following your favorite TV Programs and provides an easy cloud backup (handy since the Samsung Focus goes through some hard resets)
  • NowPlaying – nice app to tweet the current song playing when the mood strikes
  • Nixie Clock Open-mouthed smile; It has been bundled into Digital Clocks
  • Bing Image Search
