23 Mobile Things #1 - Blogging & Registering

I did the previous 23 Things programs and found them very useful.  I have co-owned an iPad with my son for two years now.  We find that sharing ownership works well.  I take it to conferences, he uses it to check Reddit, and we both read the Star Tribune on it when we travel. I recently bought an iPhone and am still getting used to it.

Although we have a number of apps loaded, the sheer number of potential apps is overwhelming.  I'm grateful to try some that have been preselected by librarians as potentially useful to me, both personally and professionally.  Also, our library currently circulates Kindles, Nooks, and laptops, but I can see that mobile devices like iPads may be in our future.  I hope to find apps useful for circulating iPads, as well as apps that could help our staff.
