I'm not sure, but I may have posted about this app earlier, but since I use it daily, I want to make sure I tell others about it!
Yes, there is an app for my iPhone that I like a lot! It’s called IMO Instant Messenger. The best part is that it simply has the ability to pull all of messenger accounts together under one app. Facebook chat, Skype, MSN, Google Talk, MySpace, Yahoo, and more! A great way to be able to stay online with each IM client, and not have to switch between apps.
There are several awesome features, including copy and paste! I also like the fact that it keeps you signed on for a week without taking you off after several hours.
It’s also FREE! And there is now news that it will be getting an awesome update on Tuesday... hooray! ;)

Books, Books, Books....I
used to be an avid reader. However, lately I just haven’t had as much
time as I wish I did. Thanks to the internet and all the nifty devices, I
find myself reading blogs and other news articles. Occasionally, I’ll
sit down and pull up a book.Yes,
I don’t pull out a book, I pull it up... on my Nook. I have found many
of my favorites are available as digital books. Most have been free, and
I like the ability to read it whenever I please. I don’t need to carry
around the physical books anymore, my library is on my digital device!
It’s great!I’m
a sucker for classic literature, but unfortunately, some of my
favorites aren’t available for free. Last week, when My mom told me that
“The Count Of Monte Cristo” had been reduced to 99 cents... I was
ecstatic! It is one of my all-time favorite books. Don’t believe me???
I’d read it several times a month as a teenager. And I’m sure that I’ve
honestly read the book over 150 times. Not too unusual, like I
mentioned, I used to be an avid reader!I need to find a way to make an Amazon Book fund, so that I may add to my collection... ;)~Matt
Growing
up, I loved to read. My parents, especially my mom, encouraged reading.
She’d make up stories, and as I grew older she introduced me into the
Laura Ingalls Wilder books. I also remember my dad starting me with the
Sugar Creek Gang! Wow! Both got me interested in history, adventure, and mystery.I
had tons of books, and enjoyed going to the library. As a pre-teen, I
picked up many books as well. Hardy Boys mystery books were my favorite,
and I read through all of them! I’m not kidding! During
those years, my parents then found a few “Illustrated Classics”...
These were ‘simple’ abridged versions of classic literature that
included a few illustrated pictures along the way. Thanks to these books, I had
to read the real things later. That started my obsession!Acquaintances
often thought I was odd (go figure, not a big surprise) that I’d enjoy
books they were ‘made’ to read in school. Moby Dick, Robinson Crusoe,
Ben-Hur, Invisible Man, Count of Monte Cristo... are books I read
hundreds of times. My book collection grew. One of my favorites: “The
Complete Sherlock Holmes”.Things
got interesting when I started dating Lydia! She had me read a few
relationship books. I was in “love”, so I did. They weren’t too bad.
Once married, she also introduced me into some of the literature that
she enjoys. I’ll admit... there is a few that are pretty good, like Jane
Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice”. Thanks
to my Nook Color, and the Amazon book app, I’m able to read many of my
favorites anytime! I’ve found that a lot of the “classic literature” is
free. Talk about a happy guy! Lydia has also encouraged me to read other
books as well, and since we share the Amazon account, we’re able to
share books as well. We’ve also picked up books on relationships for
couples and children. They’re great things to read. However, I still
like my adventure and mystery books!Now if only I can find more time!!! ~Matt
