Top 5 Thursdays

As I read and follow other blogs, I notice that each blog brings something different to each day of the week. Today, I'm starting Top 5 Thursdays.

Top 5
{iPad applications}

1. Flipboard
This magazine inspired app uses all of my social media accounts, preferred news sources and daily lineup of trend reports to create headlines and photo spots of all things relevant. Simply put- it's easy & beautiful to look at. {free}

2. Pocket Penguins
Penguins. Real live penguins at the California Academy of Sciences! Everyday at 10am (when the penguins get fed) the app allows you to tune in (with sound!) to the biologists and listen in to them talk about the Academy's penguin family. {free}

3. Facebook
Finally! FB just came out with their iPad app. This app keeps me up to date with all the happs in the FB world. {free}

4. blogpress
This app allows me to edit my blog posts. Although I haven't mastered this yet- I'm planning on utilizing this daily {sale $2.99}

5. Kindle
RC has a Kindle, so this app allows him to share his recent reads with me! Perfect for my monthly book club. {free}

*Honorary Mention Coffee table
RC downloaded this one for me! This app compiles catalogs that you would normally receive via the post. The nifty part is that you can click on the pillow/ottoman/vintage tee and purchase directly from the app! You can enter to win their contest for a free ipad 2 here {free}
