As I have previously mentioned, I really enjoy apps that help people to be better organized. I myself am pretty challenged when it comes to organization and use any help that I get. 2Do Lite and Errands are two apps that are meant to help people like me keep better track of tasks, projects and of all things that need to get done.

I prefer Errands and I will outline why that is as I compare both apps.

There is nothing like the feeling of holding a guitar for the first time, its heavy, awkward and all around uncomfortable. The more you practice, the more the instrument becomes an extension of your limbs and you start to wonder how you ever existed without it.

Hooray to all the Mac lovers. One of my favorite apps — Headset — is finally available for iPhone/Mac (formerly it was only an iPhone/Windows software).

Save your buck and never buy again an always breaking wired headsets for your online VoIP communication. Why bother if you have quality speaker and microphone in your iPhone? The app connects iPhone wirelessly to your desktop or notebook computer (you have to only install a free dekstop software) and voila — you can call on Skype, Google Talk, AIM etc and have all your audio coming in and out of your iPhone, isn’t it great?

But there is more to it! You can RECORD your conversations! You can also have a flexibility to walk out to another room from your computer since you are connected to it via WiFi. Check it out!
