Five iPhone Apps I use everyday

Posted by Jason Mosley on September 30 2008 in Everything Else

I have had my iPhone for a few months now, so I think it’s time for me to share my most used apps. This list only includes the apps that I have downloaded from the App Store.

Facebook – I really enjoy this app. I know I could just go to the site with the browser, but I feel the new version is a lot faster and smoother. I was a casual user of this site, now thanks to this app, I am a power user (MySpace who?).

AIM – It’s so nice not having to fire up the laptop to chat with your friends. Also, since I don’t have unlimited text messaging if my buddies are online I can save myself a text or two.

Twinkle – I love twitter and this app makes me love it that much more. It lets you updated and read your tweets and adds a location feature. You are able to see what other people in a 5-50 mile radius are saying on twitter. I know it sounds stupid, but you will love it once it helps you avoid a traffic accident on the parkway.

NetNewWire – I cannot live without a feed reader, this was the first app I downloaded. Again, just like with AIM it’s nice to not have to fire up the laptop to check my feeds.

Aurora Feint – This is a fun puzzle/RPG game. It has a slick design and it’s surprisingly addictive. When I am at the laundry mat this is what I play, it’s a good time killer.

Honorable Mention:
After making this short list, there were two that I just couldn’t leave off. The first one is Remote, it lets you control iTunes from anywhere in the house. The second is Cube Runner, this is a game were you fly your ship though a maze of cubes (it sounds boring but just give it a try).

There are so many applications that I could have listed, but those are the ones I used multiple times a day. Let me know what your top five apps are.

    Have to make this (uncharacteristically) short, so no annotations — here are five I use:

    AOL Radio…okay, one annotation: I like the “Locals” feature that finds all stations in your city, plus all those “All (name of band)” stations that play nothing but songs from one group.

    ScoreMobile

    Mobile News

    Facebook

    Labyrinth Lite Edition (a coworker told me to download this game)
