Note taking apps are dime a dozen these days, but occasionally I stumble across a new one that does something smarter than the rest. Letterspace, an app for iOS and Mac, is a beautifully designed free app that organizes your notes in an interesting new way we’ve seen on only social media so far: hashtags.

You’re also able to @mention people in your…

The first episode is available inside Snapchat’s channel found within the new Discover feature and is titled “Sip & Surf Party XXX.” I tried to watch it. I really did.

This included all the DVDs, nutrition guide, the official protein powder and a set of workout resistance bands. The late night informercials finally convinced me that I was going to look like Tony Horton and all the successful “beach body” people in just 90 days. Once my package of death (I mean, P90X package) arrived I had all the tools at my fingertips to get in amazing shape and become a much…
