After much and much procrastination I have finally gotten with the times and purchased a smart phone... yes. Me the girl who put off texting for as long as possible... and now that is pretty much all I do. I am a texting queen. Needless to say I now wonder how I lasted so long without one of these "smart" thingies... I am hooked. Okay, maybe the correct word would be.... ADDICTED.
It all started because of an app called Square. After years of selling jewels by cash or check only... I realized I needed to get with it if I was going to compete in the Handmade community in Denver. With the Square app vendors can accept MasterCard, Visa, AMEX and Discover right from their iPhone, Droid, Blackberry... (you get where I am going with this)
Then I was introduced to Craftsy. An ingenious app that helps you manage your Etsy site from the convenience of your phone.. Hello. lots of lovelies at my fingertips.. yes please.
Watch out for the Hipstamatic App... warning it is addicting... I am loving taking all kinds of pictures with this vintage. retro. funky. camera. with interchangeable film. lenses and flash. So many options.. and so many things that need their picture taken. It really does help you make the ordinary extraordinary.... here is an example...
Then there are the obvious:
Facebook.. the social media must have and
The Weather Channel.... to see what the day will bring...
What are your favorite apps? you know... the ones you can no longer go a day without checking... I would love to know.
It's that wonderful time of the year again... this Saturday June 18th.... 32nd & Lowell transforms into one of the liveliest street fairs Denver has to offer. Live Music on 3 stages ... over 150 vendors with art, crafts and more... and great food and beer... all in one place.... all day long...
