No 23

I think just going thru the exercises was helpful although at times frustrating. My favorite was device tips which taught me a few things about my iPhone. I had conversations with others re the 23 mobile things and my granddaughter was impressed that I was on Instagram .i was amazed at all the things you can do with an iPhone. I found setting up the blog frustrating why not just tell us there's an app for it  I might participate In another 23 things depending on what it was about. The program forced me to take the time to learn some new things

Apps I like are Groupon and Living Social both of these apps offer restaurant vouchers at a discount of up to 50%. It's an opportunity to try different restaurants at a discount many of them very enjoyable. Both of these sites also offer discounts on various other things such as hotels resorts etc
