\nPinterest<\/strong><\/a> is hands down my favorite app today. I don\u2019t really understand why more guys haven\u2019t jumped on Pinterest. It\u2019s perfect for our short attention span. It\u2019s all pictures with only a little reading – what\u2019s not to like about that?! Pinterest has everything categorized really well and with tag searches there\u2019s something to find that interests you. I stick to many of the same categories; DIY, GEEK, HEALTH & FITNESS, FOOD AND DRINK and HUMOR. There is so much food pinned you can go for days looking through it all. The Mrs. and I have tried quite a few recipes with great success. There\u2019s a social aspect to Pinterest as well. You can connect with your friends and see things they\u2019ve pinned as well as find new people to follow who you\u2019ve come across. There\u2019s a tie-in with Facebook for easy sign-in as well as seeing who in your friends list are already on Pinterest. Check it out. Right now. Seriously, if you don\u2019t already have it, GO!<\/p>\n

\nIf you\u2019re a business professional I think a LinkedIn<\/strong><\/a> profile is a must-have. For those of you not familiar with LinkedIn, it\u2019s like Facebook for your career. But you have to remember, this is all about you professionally, your career, and livelihood. There\u2019s no discussion about how much fun you had drinking with your buddies last weekend. People (read: future employers) really do look at your profile. This is where you need to have your act together; time for your professional game face. LinkedIn is a great place to make connections, get your resume\/profile out there, and keep in touch with industry news. Often, moving up in your career is about connections and networking; LinkedIn is a great place to keep you moving in the right direction.<\/p>\n![\"Flipboard\"](\"https:\/\/extrapolatethis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Flipboard_Logotype_Square_flat_300dpi.png\")

\nFlipboard<\/strong><\/a> is a basically a news reader. Flipboard gets its name from the way you \u201cflip\u201d through the abbreviated article pages. It puts together news by category, i.e. Business, in a nice Readers Digest like format. As you go into a category, Flipboard gives you article after article, along with the beginning of the article. When one looks interesting, you just touch the article and head into the full read. Flipboard is the main way I receive news. I only have to read the articles of which I have interest. Flipboard is also customizable with what categories are shown and even has a nice tie-in with Facebook. It’s a really good way to organize your news.<\/p>\n![\"Zedge\"](\"https:\/\/extrapolatethis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/zedge1.png\")

\nLooking for a new notification sound or maybe a new ringtone? Zedge<\/strong><\/a> has it, including my current text message notification, a Minion saying \u201cBow Chicka Wow Wow\u201d. It\u2019s all user submitted and there\u2019s a huge library of media for your devices. As I look at the app on my S4, there\u2019s 11k wallpapers, nearly 2k live wallpapers, over 600k ringtones, and 124k notifications. Zedge is searchable, so if there\u2019s something specific you’re looking for it’s easy to find. Everything is good quality and the wallpapers look great on my retina display iPad. If you\u2019re savvy enough to make your own wallpapers or ringtones, upload and share them!<\/p>\n
