The Top Ten Apps That Make Me Want the iPhone

Before, I simply wanted the iPhone because the iPhone was pretty. Now I want it because all of its apps are like magic. That damn Steve Jobs may get me yet. For the moment, though, I'm still a simple flip phone user.

If I ever upgraded, though, I would jump on these iPhone apps so fast. You should check them out too!

  1. Pandora Radio, a free app that lets you stream your personalized radio station through your phone.
  2. Free Wi-Fi, a free app that helps you find free WiFi hotspots in your area.
  3. Take Me To My Car, a free app that, um, takes you back to your car when you forget where you've parked. Just save your location upon exiting your car, and then refer back to the app later!
  4. Tweetie, a $2.99 app that allows you to handle multiple Twitter accounts, view your timeline, replies, and DMs, and tweet to your heart's content.
  5. iHandy Level, a free app that does the job of your typical carpenter's level, making the hanging of pictures gosh darn easy.
  6. Shazam, a free app that tells you what's playing, whether it's on the radio, on TV, or just on the overhead in a store. All you do is hold your phone up and you'll soon know the name of that song you've been grooving on lately.
  7. Crosswords, a $9.99 app through which you can download and solve new crossword puzzles every day.
  8. myCard, a $0.99 app that allows you to send your virtual business card via e-mail.
  9. WordPress, a free app that allows you to update and manage your WordPress blog from your iPhone.
  10. AroundMe, a free app that identifies your position and allows you to search for nearby banks, bars, gas stations, restaurants, etc.

What are your favorites? I want to be in the know when I finally arrive from the year 2000.

I've been enjoying the Dance Dance Revolution game as of late.

I am, indeed, a Verizon customer. Though one of the other things holding me back is whether or not a constant Internet connection is really...necessary to my life.
