There's little doubt that dating apps have contributed a lot to the love lives of people from all over the world over the last few years. According to a recent study, about one third of Americans have used a dating app or a dating website. That's a significant rise from 2013 when the figure was about 11%. However, while 12% of people claim to have found a long-term relationship online there have been plenty of sob stories to go along with the happy ones. The anonymity of individuals online has left the gate open for some to take advantage of online partners for one reason or another. So, ...  More

You've got to admit, the US election process has got weirder and weirder over the last few years. Probably the strangest statistic of them all is the fact that the LOSER of the 2016 election received a good 3 million MORE votes than the person who now holds the office of the 'leader of the western world.' Yeah, I know. It's hard to get your head around, isn't it? When Trump was first elected, many used to find some of his comments humorous but that has all gone out of the window now. The polls all suggest that, this time around, it will be the Democrats who prevail. However, I seem to ...  More

In the early days of app development it was always a topic of much amusement that many people would have heaps of apps on their smartphones yet would rarely use any of them. It's all changed now, of course. These days our lives are virtually run by apps whether it is to communicate with our friends and family, plan our public transport, buy goods and services, watch videos or to simply do a Google search . When it comes to our business lives there has been a complete revolution that has made it possible to run the whole business using a variety of apps for everything from accounts to ...  More

This Covid 19 business has knocked us about so much that we forget, at times, the impact it can have on our first world values. For example, I was talking to a friend who works in a high rise building with close to 1000 employees the other day. Many of his team are still working from home and the reason for that is a simple one - the company can get its workers to the building but, given that lifts can only accommodate a few people at a time, it would take them hours to get all their workers to their floor or office. There was another problem that he told me about too. They are having ...  More

Word games have been around for a very long time to amuse and educate us. The first crossword puzzle, for example, was first invented by a journalist named Arthur Wynne and appeared in the New York World newspaper way back in 1913. Since then, various word games have reigned supreme as a staple of every newspaper and magazine and have only really been challenged in the brain teaser field in the last few years by the likes of Sudoku, KenKen and a whole bunch of smartphone games. However, if you want to improve your vocabulary skills and knowledge of words, there's nothing quite like a good ...  More

There are many lessons that we can learn from this pandemic in the business world. Probably the most significant will be that many of us will have to adjust our business model to suit the situation that we are in. We will need to become sleeker, smarter and more efficient in the way we manage our businesses. Real estate and property management is one of the businesses that has been badly affected. Owners and tenants have been hit hard over the last few months. Many properties lay empty as tenants find they can't afford to pay their rent and many landlords have been forced to drop their ...  More

I think we can agree that, given the pandemic mess that we've found ourselves in for the last few months, it's going to take a monumental effort to get our business communities back on track and thriving. Realistically, It could take years. Many have been hit hard while others have simply ceased to exist. Millions of honest-to-goodness workers at all levels have lost their jobs and, for many, it's a time when they might have to think about starting their career again. However, some of our business ideologies might have become slightly dated and flawed over the years and could do with an ...  More

The coronavirus global pandemic has caused masses of problems in the world over the last few months not the least being the horrendous loss of life. Consequently, we have had to change many of the ways in which we live whether it is by self-isolation, social distancing or simply by wearing a mask to prevent the virus spreading any further. Many stores have shut their doors while others remain open but with much reduced capacity. This has caused much consternation for many as people are forced to queue outside supermarkets, banks and medical centers. Restaurants will have similar problems ...  More

With more and more people living and working in other countries these days the problem of sending cross border international payments from one country to the next is fraught with difficulties. With the world seemingly getting smaller and smaller, you'd think that the banking system would have accommodated the 'digital nomads' as they've been called. To a certain extent they have. Companies like PayPal, Western Union and the banks themselves provide a good service but their exchange rates, commissions and hidden fees can work out extremely expensive and there is often a few days delay ...  More

We here at the FeedMyApp offices have reviewed plenty of time management apps over the last few years. All offer something a little different and many get better with the onset of new technology and new methods. The fact is, over time, the apps get more and more efficient, offer even better features and are more user friendly. Given the difficult times we are going through at the moment it seems obvious that businesses are going to have to get much better organised and must be able to plan their time better in order to return things to the way they were and to ensure that their company ...  More
