Posted in: Uncategorized
- http://tinyurl.com/48xq6tj - A nifty app that allows you to create a blacklist for your Android phone. Block calls and texts for specific numbers, prevent unknown callers or texters from getting through, import multiple contacts into your blacklist, etc.
- http://tinyurl.com/yc6ahuv - An exceptionally well-animated short (8 minutes) from “The Story of Stuff” project called The Story of Bottle Water. Watch this beautifully-done animation and learn about the tactics used by the bottled water industry to manufacture demand and encourage Americans to continue buying over half a billion bottles of water…every week.
- http://picresize.com – Crop and/or resize images quickly. No downloads, no signups, no cost. Just upload your file, crop or resize, then save your new file.
- http://tinyurl.com/6zrh987 - If you have a friend with a tendency to go (horrendously) overboard when IM’ing or texting, try sending him one of these clever/cool/snarky callout cards. (You can find some additional callout card options for “textual harassment” here: http://tinyurl.com/67v3bld)
- http://foxfly.com – A group messaging service that “makes it easy to keep in touch with the groups that are most important to you.” Share whatever you’d like with private groups and “leave the rest, and your other ‘friends’ on Facebook.” Three things you should know: 1) The service is free. 2) You can create as many groups as you’d like, but groups have a max of 15 people each. 3) The FoxFly App is currently only available for iPhones, but the company is working on versions for Android, Blackberry, and Nokia.
