IPAD2 Apps


On this Post i will advice links etc for :
A google user with an IPAD 2 in France :) woohoo that was complicated

The IPAD is mainly a "Media Displayer"
Things that you will end up doing with you blog on a regular basis
  • reading the News/magazines
  • watching videos
  • reading a book
  • etc
thus if you are in the webmedia business you should absolutly get a IPAD but lets say you are an engineer!!
then everyonce in a while the IPAD and mostly the APPLE world will drive you a bit crazy cause its so closed off. I like open source thus i like google, it makes it easy for noobs to get on board.

Google Apps
here is the list of google apps that i was able to find right away download for free
  • Google Earth
  • Gmail
  • Google search
  • Google voice
  • Google Translate
  • Google Latitute
  • Google+
  • Google Books
  • Google Currents (Not sure what this is, but if its google i download it to learn)
  • Google Places
  • Google Catalogs(its interesting it for people who love to shop hahah)
and thats all that you can find easy enough. The must have is Google Search because with that appliction you can have access to all your usual google apps online even if there is no app for it.

Aeronautical technology apps
