I live in the middle of nowhere and have no need for a smart phone as I have to go quite a few miles to get service.

The SO snuck around and cut/sold 2 extra cords of wood and got me this 64g iPod touch as a combo xmas/bday gift. YAY.

So , mundane for most people, really cool for me, and pointless, except that I am practicing typing with my thumbs.

Free app recommendations welcome and encouraged!

( damn, that took like 10 minutes to type) 😉
