A Freebie I Couldn't Live Without

I've written before about how much I love my iPhone. Today I am writing extol the virtues of an application I literally could not live without. It is called:

Sha-ZAM!

This little freebie (yes, FREE!) has dramatically changed my life, allowing me to happily spend copious amounts of money on iTunes. (I think you can also download this app to your Blackberry. Click above link for more info.)

I am one of those people who loves music but never knows who sings what. Very often I am listening to the radio, watching something on TV or in a store and I hear a song that I love but I have no clue what it's called or who the artist is.

In swoops Sha-ZAM! to the rescue, just like the ancient Superhero it is named after. All you do is hold up your iPhone (or Blackberry apparently) and let it listen to the song. It tells you the name of the song, the artist and album. I have even used it in crowded, noisy places like the mall and it works every time. And it even gives you a link to buy the song then and there. What more could a girl want?

As my nephew would say, and I quote, "Awwwwweeesome!"

If it weren't for Sha-ZAM I would literally be writhing around in mental agony not knowing what all of those cool songs are that I really like. Not pretty, right? Instead I am listening to all those cool songs right now as I am typing this blog.

So this blog is in tribute to the all-mighty Sha-ZAM and whoever created you.

You. So. Totally. Rock!
