Docs To Go Free
With family and work competing for every second, Documents to Go lets me do a last-minute proof or edit of Microsoft Office docs while waiting in the piano teacher’s living room or at the doctor’s office. Love that!
Instapaper
When I’ve found some great news articles or blog posts I’m dying to read, but it’s time to take number-one kid to gymnastics, I can send them all to Instapaper and read ’em while I wait.
I feel more connected to my business network when I can respond to a request, post a response to a group discussion, or recommend a colleague for a job while on the run.
White Noise
Creates a nice sound buffer when I need to block the sounds of “Phineas and Ferb” coming from the living room while I’m trying to craft killer copy on deadline.
ClockIn
I bill by the hour, so when I’m at Target grabbing plates for a classroom party and a call comes in about a critical project, I click in on ClockIn to track my time and I don’t miss a billable minute come invoicing time.
Fandango Movies – Times + Tickets
When the sitter says “yes,” it’s time to make fast plans. Fandango shows what’s playing where, and lets me buy tickets fast to lock down the night!
iVideo
Life just happens when it happens. You’re not always near the Flipcam when a magical moment occurs. iVideo lets me capture the cute, the creative, and the crazy stuff in that moment.
