Simply Gorgeous Apps to Get Your Life in Sync

Bookmarks are great for keeping track of favorite web sites - if you remember where you stashed them. The new alternative has to be Evernote, which encourages you to keep track of notes, photos, voice recordings and every web page you want to remember. It can grab just the link or a copy of the entire page - images included. The app is available for nearly every mobile device and computer, plus it's all searchable - by word, tag or location. Free, but for $5/month, you can access everything offline too. +http://bit.ly/yg0hJG

Napkin Sketches:

Sure you can email an image of that great-idea-that's-going-to-make-you-a-millionaire sketch penned on a cocktail napkin or phone.

But if you or a partner want to collaborate without too much downtime, the Penultimate drawing and handwriting app now syncs directly with a Dropbox or Evernote account. $0.99 +http://bit.ly/zBm2K8

Photos:

PhotoSync keeps photos on all devices - and photo sites - in sync without the usual Apple requirement of a cable. It's fast, smooth and simple.

The app uses Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to transfer or receive photos between an iPhone or iPad and a Windows or Mac computer (which need to download free software). It also can quickly add images to Flickr, Dropbox, Google+, Facebook and even plain FTP. And it works with untouched raw images. $1.99 +http://bit.ly/wRbuu2
