Evernote and Egretlist

Media_httpwwwmacstori_yjaxi

Apparently I missed this one... But Evernote is generally pretty quiet about its acquisitions. I've used Egretlist in the past, and it was almost a perfect solution for me. Unfortunately, it appears that the app doesn't currently work with iOS 5.

I love what Evernote did with Evernote Food and Clearly. The fact that they release separate "helper" apps instead of trying to cram it all into one big, fat, resource hogging mega-app means people can just pick and choose what functionality they need/want.

No word on when an update will be provided, but I have a feeling that when it does come out, it will be full of awesomeness.

Self-regulation

P633

When I first got my iPhone organized, I had 3 folders of games. I found myself trying to justify the space they consumed by playing them all at least once or twice a week. Total time-waster. And I kept buying more games. Games I saw somewhere, games my friends recommended, games I randomly stumbled upon in the App Store, etc.

So now I limit myself to one games folder. If I really need a new game, I delete one that I don't play as much as I should. It cuts down on clutter, wasted space, and wasted time.

Do you set any limits for yourself and your iPhone, or is it one big bird-flinging, temple running free-for-all?

Google+ iOS Update

I haven't had the opportunity to try it yet, but being able to join Hangouts from the mobile app is huge. Definitely beat Facebook to the punch there--which is surprising, considering Facebook's Skype integration, and the fact that Skype video chat works on the iPhone.
