I Can’t Quit You
Are you addicted to your iPhone? A new app called “Moment” is here to help! You set the amount of time you want to spend per day playing games or checking your email and when you reach that limit (or close to it) your phone sends you a notification reminding you that there are more important things on your to-do list.

She Works Hard for the Money
Former Google executive Marissa Mayer, now President and CEO of Yahoo just can’t seem to nudge her way into Google and Facebook’s arena. Yahoo, despite Marissa’s best efforts to purchase and broadcast exclusive content, has seen a 3% decline in revenue. How long till we say Yah-Who?

Wouldn’t you love to control the lights, heat and alarm system to your home – even when you’re away from home!?! Then NAPCO Security’s iBridge™ Connected Home may be for you. This new home services app gives you control over these items and more directly from your smartphone, tablet or computer. And the best part…? It’s manufactured right here on Long Island!
