Post #35: National App Day

National App Day is observed annually on December 11.  The word “App” was listed as the word of the year in 2010 by the American Dialect Society.   
Short for Software Application, apps quickly appeared as our mobile cellular phones incorporated smart technologies including processing chips, internet connectivity and touchscreens.
Since that time apps have changed how we work, live and play.  They have created thousands of new companies, millions of new jobs and billions of dollars in revenue.
For day's blog tell me about your favorite App. What is it? Why is it your favorite?
When you are finished, please go to Typing.com and complete the lesson titled "Z and Enter Keys".
