By now I am sure you have received a ton of emails, mailers and even coupon texts about Black Friday deals. While I do participate in Black Friday events I do think things may have spiraled out of control. Check out this article about unstaffed digital stores and other innovative shopping trends http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/innovations/wp/2013/11/27/black-friday-will-never-be-the-same-heres-how-technology-is-changing-shopping/
A direct quote is "We’re still in the early stages of technology changing retail. We’ve seen online retailers such as Amazon chip away at traditional retailers, but the use of smartphones to enhance in-person and online purchasing is just beginning."

Planning time to update my phone and apps!
Daily my phone notifies me that it needs to be updated, there are apps I want and haven't taken time to install and apps that need to be uninstalled. So I am going to make some time in the next two weeks to get my phone cleaned up. If you are wondering about what apps I am interested in these are ones to increase my "productivity" supposedly.
The first one is an area GPS calculator. Each fall I do yield checks for corn and soybean growers in Talbot County. I want to compare my wheel measurements with the calculations to check for accuracy. Some have said that the wheel would be more accurate others have said that the GPS would due to ditches and bumping of the wheel.
The second one is a business card reader. I would love to clear out the box on my desk of accumulated business cards.
The final is a reader app. I am on the road a lot and have heard that there is a reader app that will read documents to you. This could save a lot of time on my commute and my eyes.
Stay tuned as I will follow up on these apps. Does anyone else have ones theyd want to work with or install but haven't taken the time to search, download or learn to use them?
