Twitter apps

If there's one word that comes to mind regarding our online activities over the last few years it is security. Not only are there people from as far as the Ukraine and China trying to access our private information but there's also been plenty of occasions when friends, family and co workers have felt the compulsion to see what we are up to on our devices. I've lost count of the number of times that I've seen an embarrassing post on a friend's social media account which has obviously been entered by someone other than themselves when they have left their mobile unattended. What's more, we ...  More

You might have seen a review that FeedMyApp posted recently for an app called BooksTo.Me. In it, it was mentioned how posting daily Instagram photos has become the new diary for many people and how it was a convenient way of documenting your life. The diary concept has all but disappeared for many these days, but with so many popular online versions available as well as the plethora of personal blogs and journals, it’s obvious that many have a hankering to document their daily activities. But anyone who writes on a daily basis will know that the hardest sentence to write is the very ...  More

Over the last year or so there have been plenty of apps released that have let you create your own Facebook or Timeline header.

HeaderCover uses a fast and easy 'step-by-step' process to create beautiful Twitter headers that integrate your photo within the image.   You know what they say! First impressions are lasting impressions and they tend to last forever! If you want ...  More

There's a well worn phrase that says that sport is the opiate of the masses and that is more than true when if comes to football...or soccer, for our American friends. Football fans can be rabid in their love of their team and, with teams like Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea in England and Barcelona and Real Madrid in Spain,it's hardly surprising that they are some of the biggest and most profitable sporting teams in the world. Indeed, their fans are spread across the globe. So, it’s reasonable to assume, that those fans are always on the lookout for ways to keep up with news ...  More

I've been saying for some time that there is an optimum number of friends that are manageable on social networks. Realistically, having anything more than 200 Facebook friends makes scrolling through the various feeds almost a full time job. Many of them mean little of nothing to you and you will skip over them to get to the important stuff. Damned time consuming, isn't it? Now, add Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram and, what used to be a fun exercise, is starting to turn into a full time job. Slim is a new iOS social media productivity application that filters the important updates from ...  More

If I said the words clipart to you the chances are you going to flip the page and have a look t something else. Clip art apps and sites are 'two-a-penny' aren't they? Just Google one and you will find pretty well what you are looking for straight away. Some will be free and some will require a royalty fee to be paid. Most people aren't keen on the idea of paying for clipart so there is a lot of potential for an app like this one. i2Clipart is an online sharing network that lets users create, share and download royalty-free public domain vector clipart images. It is perfect for everyone ...  More

Advertising on social media sites has become commonplace over the last few years. It was a boon to really small shops and small businesses because it gave them free advertising and a chance to talk to their fans on a regular basis. But it still isn't easy to get your word across to a bigger audience. Its a lot easy if you are willing to spend big bucks on your advertising campaigns but that just generally isn't an issue for businesses on small, tight budgets. So thats where a social media monitoring app like SocialCentiv comes in. It is designed to analyze social media and maximize your ...  More

While this iPhone app might be an incredibly simple concept, it is quite often the simplest of apps that prove to be the most successful. So, why is it that I think that this messaging app might achieve world dominance. Well, let's assume you are trying to encourage your local Twitter friends to come to a party or a gig that night or maybe you are trying to meet up at a bar for a drink. You could tweet them all individually or link them but that could take a lot of time and all those names will use up your 140 characters pretty quickly. On the other hand you could put an open message out ...  More

One of the things that sets the biggest sporting teams apart from the also-rans in their field are their rabid supporters who will support their team through thick and thin. NFL has the Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins, New England Patriots and  New York Giants, baseball has the NY Yankees and the LA Dodgers, basketball has the Lakers and the biggest of all - soccer (or football, as it is known in most territories) has the Spanish clubs, Real Madrid and Barcelona and finally, there are England's Manchester United and London's famous Arsenal. Formed in the 19th Century, Arsenal - or ...  More
