What you can do with a smart phone and some apps

Before I acquired my smart phone, I knew that I wanted it for a couple of main features other than making phone calls. One of these was to receive emails and the other was to have access to the internet so that I could Google an address or pull up a map. I promised you in an earlier post that I would tell you about other things you can do with a smart phone.

Even if email and Google is all you use it for, you’ll thoroughly enjoy those conveniences. But I bet you’ve heard the expression: “There’s an app for that.” And there definitely is.

Upgrading a cell phone the free way

A few weeks ago, I finally joined the twenty-first century and acquired my first smart phone. No, I’m not a Luddite, I just thought I couldn’t afford to do this just yet. You see, for the past couple of years, I’ve been going to school full time and my budget has been tight, tight, tight.

And before you stop reading to get out your dictionary to find out what a Luddite is, that’s someone that doesn’t embrace technology—that has never been me. In fact, if you were physically reaching for a dictionary, you may be a Luddite. Just kidding, if you’ve been in school like me, you have probably been encouraged to own a real dictionary. But I will also tell you, there’s an app for that.
