Blippy is a website where people obsessively review everything they buy.
Notes Plus App
I remember reviewing Neu Notes earlier this year with the Boxwave Stylus. Move over Neu Notes, Notes Plus is here! Love that it syncs with Google Docs, love that it has a beautiful zoom in feature along with a Palm pad. So far, allows for the neatest bit of note taking on the iPad. I'm in love!
Virtuoso Piano Free App
This one made me sooo happy :D It has the cutest duet feature that lets people on two sides of the iPad play simultaneously. A must-have for kids and for people who think they can play the piano (Like me!)
SCRABBLE for iPad App
If you're a word game freak like me, you must have this! Being a word game freak, most people don't want to play with me ('coz I get ridiculously competitive) and so I'm more than happy to play against the computer (who btw doesn't even take too much time, which works out perfectly for me!).
But the coolest feature is Party Play. I played Scrabble with 2 of my family members last night - they downloaded the Scrabble Tile Rack app to their iPhones and the iPad became the Board. Also, remember how annoying it is that the regular board game only has one orientation? The iPad app lets you rotate the board to suit you (From the tile rack iPhone app) and get this - it remembers how you rotated it so you don't need to do it over and over again!
I bought my Scrabble Board for $20 last year. I'd happily pay more for the iPad app which delivers way more value!

Oh absolutely! And I discovered one more thing about it yesterday - you can play Scrabble with your Facebook friends: they can play the game from their iphones or ipads (Depending on where they have the app) or right from Facebook on their laptops!!

I haven't tried that yet but I don't think I have any reason to now :D
ADELE - 19
She took an okay song and made it amazing. There's a reason why musicians should make covers!!!
chrismolnar
bob dylan!
yaminig
@chrismolnar don't you think she made it better than his version? I didn't know it was a Bob Dylan song originally but went and heard it after and I was so disappointed! And I know the only reason I was disappointed was that I'd heard Adele.
chrismolnar
that's probably true. bob dylan's is so sleepy...
Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova - Once (Music from the Motion Picture)
A classic. period.
chrismolnar
so good.
Christina Perri - Jar of Hearts
Honestly, I love the song. It's haunting right now. But, I'm not sure if I'm going to love it for a long time :D
suchitagarwal
Yea, somehow it makes me feel like an asshole every time I hear it :P.
gkruis
Jar of Hearts. That does sound haunting. Sounds downright creepy to me.
yaminig
@suchitagarwal did not think you were "that" guy :D
@gkruis i wonder if it would still be haunting if we translated it into a language you don't understand :D

suchitagarwal
Yeah, me neither :P
gkruis
I'll have to listen to it. I should be able to let you know then.
Matador Travel App
Love, love, love this app. I love the travel stories and the photo essays. If you find me on my phone and I'm not emailing or texting, I'm reading Matador (I rarely talk on my phone)
TomTom XL 340-S 4.3-Inch Portable GPS Navigator
And now, I can, officially say, I found the roads to freedom.... as long as my GPS found a signal :D
beverlynoelle
I really want to upgrade mine, I've had it for ages and it seems a little cranky sometimes :)
Art Glass Center of San Jose
Super Excited about this one! and a 50% discount is great value!
Alyssa Mendonsa, Shankar Mahadevan & Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy - Karthik Callin...
For any desis here, this one gets the adrenalin going!
Netflix App
perfect to watch on my ipad when im working on my laptop :)
Penultimate App
perfect with the stylus!!! zooms in - has three page layouts - its awesome!
Guitar Tuner App
very basic. cant do variations. but ok to get your base note going
Penultimate App
Not fun. Prefer neu.notes - has a zoom functiont hat makes the page legible after you're done writing and can cram more than 5 words on a single page.
Pandora Radio App
My sunshine in a digital world. Tell me if you want me to share my playlists - a lot of Michael Buble, U2, The Fray, Queen, CCR in them!
The Wall Street Journal - Mobile App
I have a subscription. Must use it well.
thathoo
is this for iPad?
bestfriend
WSJ is cool it makes me feel like the smart, old-fashioned kind of republican
yaminig
I have it on both, my iPad and my iPod. But definitely think the one of the iPad is way cooler. However, I will add one final disclaimer - I prefer reading the actual paper.
Vans Hub App
Love the Vans app - awesome information!
MC Hammer - Greatest Hits
A classic!
thathoo
i was at his live concert at the TC Disrupt, he is amazing! Hung out with his dancers!
Various Artists - Parenthood (Original Television Soundtrack)
The show's decent but I think what keeps me going back is the music. Absolutely loved mixing the sounds of Bob Dylan, The Avett Brothers, Ray La Montagne...
Made me want to have a patio, a beer or a glass of iced tea.
