Greetings Dear Readers
This week I was asked to appear on LotusFM and chat on the Alan Khan show all about Apps. I was asked to bring a list of 10 Apps. I found plenty more. This is the result and you can find some wonderful apps in this list. Just a warning, some of them can be very addictive and some have resulted in families having huge arguments because people are too busy playing with their apps. Enjoy!
