As you can probably guess from the title (if you don't already know the website), TripAdvisor is a helpful app for when you are traveling. It includes reviews and ratings … [Read more...]

On a whim, I bought Microsoft's Kinectimals iPad app the other day. I'm pretty much a "if it ain't free in the iTunes store, I'm not gonna look twice" person but something made me shell out the $2.99 for this app. I've been jonesing for an Xbox and knew Kinectimals was one of the popular Kinect Xbox games.

Available for … [Read more...]

The following post was originally posted on MommyPants . It is a review of a new iPhone/iPad app created by fellow Mommies with Style contributor, Ciaran Blumenfeld. My friend Ciaran, aka Momfluential, has a problem. She is brilliant. This is a problem because she has so many ideas and only so many hours in the day. Also, she has four … [Read more...]
Noise. I have a crazy amount of it in my daily life. From screaming kids, cats meowing for food, cartoons blaring in the background to the phone ringing every 10 minutes, I have a whole heck of a lot of commotion going on around me at any given moment. So I recently tried out the latest product(the ICON) from Jawbone, makers of the infamous … [Read more...]
