App of the week: Snapchat

Stop fighting the urge to share an embarrassing selfie with your friends for fear it will end up public: with Snapchat, you can send any picture instantly to another user and set the amount of time, from one to ten seconds, that the photo is visible. After that time limit is up, the picture is erased forever. The person who sent the picture is alerted if the receiver tries to take a screenshot, so no worries about any photos ending up on Facebook or Twitter.

App of the week: GifBoom

If you haven’t been hearing buzz about this app yet or seeing it pop up on your news feed, you will be very soon. Considered by The Next Web to be “a Tumblr user’s best friend,” GifBoom is a photo app that’s gaining recognition as the perfect tool to make videos like the ones common on Tumblr.

App of the week: Logos quiz game

The logos quiz game is yet another reason why watching way too much TV (and therefore seeing way too many commercials) can be beneficial. It’s simple to play: the app shows images of logos and asks you to name the brand associated with each image. The more you name, the more hints and levels you unlock.

Besides being super easy, it’s free–which is always a plus. The one downside: it’s only available for Apple products, although a similar game is available for Android.
