Travel apps, like traveling itself, are often debilitating because of the multitude of options: which app will save you the most on flights, when there are at least a dozen that promise it? Here’s a list of our 10 best and sneakiest travel apps for 2018.
SEO strategies are necessary to keep, or earn, a page 1 spot on search engines in 2018. Here’s a full overview of SEO strategies for 2018, including how to rank for keywords, the necessity of mobile-first, how to achieve a higher domain authority…
How would you like to try high-quality restaurants in your area by making a reservation on an app… and how would you like to get a minimum $30 gift card to Starbucks, Uber, or Amazon (your choice!), for making this reservation? Now you can, with the Seated App, one of the coolest apps started by our fellow Bostonians.
“Social media is a reflection of my life because I am, in some ways, my brand.” We’re all well-aware of the social media influencers: a group growing every day, filled…
The same kid who goes to an EDM show on Saturday is looking for half-priced apps on Tuesday with co-workers, and also wants to do brunch with his family on Sunday. Why do you need three different apps when you can get it in one place?
In the sixth installment of our “Coolest Apps” blog series, I spoke with Seth Birnbaum to discuss EverQuote’s app, EverDrive. This app can help you become a safer driver, pay…
As if your online app-worlds haven’t collided enough already, Snapchat just released a new feature on Tuesday called Context Cards. Essentially, if your friend sends you a snap with a…
This is no longer the days of good ole’-fashioned whispering-behind-your-back (girls) and punching-in-the-courtyard (boys… mostly) aggression: bullying has taken on a new, more anonymous, life form. And, perhaps due to this anonymity, as well as the enhanced publicity of an online post, its also become more dangerous. Instagram plans to tackle this problem with three new features.
Americans alone waste 38 million tons of food every year; apparently, that’s enough food “to balance a scale with all of the blue whales left in the world, multiplied by 10, stacked on the other side.” And that’s just Americans. If the environmental results from food waste aren’t enough to sway you, how about this: I just logged into Food For All and saw a Mexican burrito bowl on sale for $4.00…
Have you ever wished deciding what to cook for dinner–while ensuring it hits both your health and taste requirements–didn’t have to be so hard? Personally, I usually only hit one or the other: it’s either delicious (take-out Chinese or Annie’s Mac and Cheese), or it’s healthy (fish and spinach… blah), but very, very rarely, is it both.
I originally decided to tackle this topic because, along with dividing America, the debate of Spotify vs. Apple Music is now dividing my own household: my brother uses Apple Music, while my other brother and I use Spotify Premium. Both music streaming services cost the same for the individual per month (although Apple does offer a $99-per-year deal, making it $20 cheaper if you choose this plan), so money doesn’t play much of a factor in the debate.
Prior to speaking to Christian, I’d pictured EchoMe, an app Christian co-founded with fellow Boston College student Michael Gordon, as being perfect for you if you’re that guy at the party who won’t unplug his phone from the AUX or allow anyone else to make any song requests because you’re loving the chance to play DJ. I knew you could connect the app with your music streaming service and listen to music in real-time with your friends, influencers, musicians, athletes–anyone. I also knew, as someone whose songs are constantly being vetoed on long road-trips for being too overplayed (I’m a little behind in the music scene, alright?), I’d probably be more of a listener than a leader.
As someone guilty of having that one great Saturday night spot, that one awesome Sunday brunch spot, and those two fun date-night spots (branching out here, people), I think a lot of us struggle to figure out which restaurants and bars in Boston are worth checking out, and for which occasion. Most of us rely on word-of-mouth, which is rough for those of us new to the area (or for those of us with two friends).
Earlier this afternoon on September 15th 2015, SnapChat released an update that included the NEW selfie filters. If you’re reading this, it’s probably because one of your friends sent you…
