Free is for me :-D

Do you like getting apps for free or reduced prices? Who doesn't, right?

There is an app called: Appsfire. This is a free app for android and apple devices. You customize the categories your interested in and any time an app goes on sale or is available for free they will give you an alert.

A lot of times apps will reduce their price to get customers interested in their product. This is a great way to test our apps that you otherwise wouldn't buy.

**Remember, as soon as you "purchase" an app it stays in your store forever, which means if you don't need the app right away just download it and the delete it, you can always re-download it again when you want it.

"Snapguide" how do i do that??

Snapguide is a great app available for iPad/iPhone and web based access which allows users to create and share interactive guides.
Examples include tutorials on how to French braid hair, cook Puerto Rican rice and make your own chalkboard coasters-just to name a few.
Guides may include pictures, videos, links or just text. Users of SnapGuide may interact with other users' guides by asking questions and leaving comments.

Never Choose Update All

Helpful tip- When updating your apple device from the iTunes Store, never choose to Update All. Unless you have 5-10 apps only, your device will slow down significantly and your apps will not update. I've seen devices freeze and stop working as well as apps crash.

Instead, try updating 2-3 at a time until you've updated all

SMART Notebook for Web

For those of you teachers using SMART Notebook, this may be helpful!

With the emerging of new technologies, we need to find a way to still access software we've been using to build our curriculum. As you know, SmartNotebook is available for download for pc and mac users only (there is an iPad app available in the iTunes store for $6.99 but its not very good!). For those of you using a tablet or a chrombook and want to still access SmartNotebook, they have come out with a new web version (in its beta state). by going to this link: http://smartnotebook.com/  you can try out the version. Its completly web based so you wont need to download any software. Unfortunately there is no saving option right now while creating with the web based software but you can open previously created notebook documents within it.

You are given a few basic options: Pen and Highlighter with color change and thickness options, Eraser, Shapes, Arrows and of course your "pointer" selection. Add or Delete a page buttons are present and you can undo or redo whats been done.

Seems pretty beginner for now.

The good thing about this is if you create lessons already, parents or users without software can access this at home just but opening your created lesson into their browser.

I want to read this later!

So day to day I must come across 20-50 articles that seem amazing to read, I just don't have the time to do so. I came across this app called "Pocket", formerly "Read It Later". It is a multi-platform app so it will work on apple products, android devices, kindles and your computer. How it works is you sign up for a free account and then have multiple ways in which you can save articles, new letters, and videos to your Pocket. It organizes them by date last added and shows a great picture and preview of the article. I especially like that you can read the article without an internet connection!! Pocket is integrated into a lot of programs that you already use, and if the program doesn't integrate it, you can create a free email-like account and send all your articles to that email address and it will add them to your pocket for you.

Now I know you may be thinking, couldn't I just use safari reading list or sync my chrome browser? Yes, but do you use those programs on all of your devices? maybe not!

Point in blank, its a great free app that lets you access exactly what you want, when you want!
