Q2: What are some useful iPhone or iPod Touch apps that are cost-efficient (and preferably free)?

We've started collecting various recommendations for iPod / iTouch applications, and we've listed the apps by category in the spreadsheet below. To view the spreadsheet as a Google Doc, go to http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0ApdSbsGfje1_dEMzdUtVRG1KNXNHa1dzTXpTU0NDUGc&hl=en

The tabs at the top separate the apps into categories, including "Reference," "Entertainment," and "Academic." Each page lists the name of the app, its generic function, more details on what it does, the cost, notes, and some similar programs. The spreadsheet was initialized in 2009.

If you have suggestions, please feel free to comment on this post, or email askhopkins@gmail.com.

AskHopkins: Introduction

Hello!

The GSA was once again looking for entries for Restriction Digest. We thought: "What about an advice column?" And, so... "Ask Hopkins" was born on December 3rd, 2009.

A bit about the blog: We're here to give advice on topics that range from Johns Hopkins University and Baltimore to relationships to random technology. On each post, you'll find "labels." If you click on a particular label, then you can find all of the blog entries that mention that particular topic.

Our readers can ask anonymous questions about pretty much anything. To ask a question, you can either send an email to askhopkins@gmail.com, or you put an anonymous comment on this blog post: http://askhopkins.blogspot.com/2009/12/questions.html We will remove any personal identifying information, post the question on the blog and/or reply via email, and publish a few questions in the GSA Newsletter, Restriction Digest.

Our resources include:
