GroupMe!

No longer do we have to listen to Blackberry Phone users brag about their BBM or Blackberry Messenger, or new iPhone messaging program iMessage, which will work on iPhones, iPads and iPod touches. There is now a new service called GroupMe that enables group messaging on any phone that can text, regardless of who makes it or what operating system it runs. GroupMe gives you a textable number that represents a group of your friends out of your contacts list. Perhaps you want to send a message out to some of your co-workers, what if you are the captain of your team and need to send a mass message to everybody on the team and then they are all able to chat back with their own imput.

If you have a solid group of people who feel comfortable with one another, you’ll probably make good use of GroupMe. Maybe your on a family vacation, or during a wedding weekend and you have to be in contact with several people at once it could be a big help and making group messaging easier for you and your friends when planning things. You should check it out and see if this would be something that would bring together all your friends that have different smart phones but a common goal of being able to chat to one another at any given time.

FourSquare - Check In!

Checking In is becoming the new tweet, and were talking all about location! Foursquare is the latest new social media tool that allows you to let people know where you are. Foursquare is essentially a game which allows people to collect points the more they use it.

Why use it?

Well because it's a game and appealing to us for that reason.
It is also great to pick up tips that other people have left at the locations they have been to, this is very useful considering if your new to an area and would like some feedback from other foursquare users.

It is also a great way to find your friend's, just log onto the application on your phone and see what bars your friends are hanging out at. You can see your friends check-ins on Foursquare to track down the best place to head to. Imagine not telling your friends what bar you guys have moved onto but rather they''ll be able to see from your check-ins and track you down without all those missed calls and text messages.
So get out there, check-in and let your friends know what you're doing, if you wanted too of course. Dont be afraid to leave tips for other people about your experiences at certain places, it doesnt always have to be negative information, for example dont be afraid to let people know whats the best thing on the menu! Try it out for yourself and see what's out there and who's out there.
