Blippy is a website where people obsessively review everything they buy.

Shazam App
I like Shazam for tagging more than song detection
· app from iTunes
girlfriday What does it tag?
foursquare App
What is there to tell? I'm mayor at 40-43 places, I have 26 badges, and close to 2400 checkins. I love the app.

saurabh you live in public!
AZVern Generally, yes. I'm extremely connected.
lesayoh in the future. mayors will be picked through 4 square. and civilization will end
riddlefish WAIT, you can become mayor of actual places in real life??
girlfriday Do you pit your cities against each other for fun? I totally would.
AZVern Riddlefish, you can become the mayor on foursquare, of real places. That title gives certain advantages, such as a free drink or appetizer, for instance.
Google Mobile App
I don't use it. I was hoping it would be a useful app, but it really does nothing for me.
· app from iTunes
saurabh true!
girlfriday Bummer.
Yelp App
I love the Yelp app. I use it MOSTLY to check in to places or Yelp events, but it's helpful to write a little bit about the place, as a draft review, to be finished later.

Pandora Radio App
I don't use it as much now that I'm not driving all the time.

I prefer Slacker Radio over Pandora.

riddlefish Why do you prefer slacker?
girlfriday What's slacker?
AZVern Slacker is similar to Pandora. Slacker seems to build better song lists, in my opinion, than Pandora.
PhoneFlicks (was Netflix Manager) App
Helpful for adding to my queues.

Don't use it much, though.
· app from iTunes
impulsebuyer have you come across the new app that lets you stream? Pretty cool.
girlfriday Seen anything good recently?
AZVern Haven't had time
Apple Store
Have no comment
· tv episode "The Doggone Truth" from Hulu
MizzBlaze Classic movie
Pixelpipe App
Just an upgrade.

A long, long time in coming.
Testees - Pilot: Gas Pill
I didn't even watch it....
· tv episode "Pilot: Gas Pill" from Hulu
riddlefish I remember thinking I wanted to check this out... You should watch it and tell me if it's good! ;D
girlfriday Both of you watch it and get back to me. Then I'll have two opinions.
Frank McKlusky, C.I.
Really horribly stupid movie.

I only got about 20 mins in and had to stop.
· movie from Hulu
Twestival App
Obviously limited use app
iLoader: Video/Photo Batch Uploader App
Very limited use or benefit for me. Already uninstalled.
AAA TripTik Mobile App
Don't really use this so I'm deleting.

You can enter your AAA info and use it to get local discounts and whatnot.
Miso App
Interesting concept. You "checkin" to movies and tv shows you're watching.

It interfaces with foursquare to share your activities.

Still playing around with it.
Slacker Radio App
I like slacker. It's similar to pandora or last.fm.

Not inherently better or worse than they are, but it's a good music system.
Dropbox App
I don't see any real need or benefit to having this on the iphone, since you're locked out of most of the filesystem.

I don't use it, anyway.
· app from iTunes
Car Jack Streets App
Free download. Haven't played it yet.
Brightkite App
I was off BK for a long while, but I'm back. I love the feature BK has that allows you to send a pic, have it geotagged to where you're checked in at, then rebroadcast to both facebook and flickr, still geotagged.

Plus, with check dot in, I can checkin to bk locations at the same time as foursquare, gowalla, and whrrl..
Real Tennis 2009 App
Free download. Haven't used it.

I grab these when they're free, so I can play 'em later.
