A good brain storming session is always a good way to wake up your brain. In some cases, it gives your brain a chance to clear the cobwebs, fold some laundry and throw out a slice of week old pizza that’s been hiding under its couch. To avoid forgetting whatever brilliant scheme you’re concocting, you may reach for a pen and a pad of paper to try and map out thought and processes. After an exceptionally furious brain busting session, your map might be so indecipherable that it may as well have been drawn by a toddler.

Cogimap for the BlackBerry Playbook really helps keep your ideas in a neat little package; making it easy to review, as well as where you can be more efficient in your project. While it was extremely easy to create and move around, Cogimap has a colour coding option to prevent you from getting carried away. The application is incredibly quick at responding to commands. It works in both portrait and landscape mode, but I did find maps created in portrait mode cannot be fully viewed in landscape. Other options in Cogimap allow you to clone maps (making for ready to use templates), change parent links and renaming maps. If we don’t have a zoom option available, I would like to be able to change the font size/type. Cogimap is available from Blackberry App World.

Expensify now available for BlackBerry 10 and the BlackBerry PlayBook

Sometime between then and now that all changed, and I was happy to see that Expensify is now available for not only BlackBerry 10, but the PlayBook as...
Keep in shape and get toned with the Max Capacity Training app
It's a brand new year, we've been indulgent during the holidays. I have to admit I started becoming a little food hungry when the cold weather started to kick in. But even when I do, I try to keep in shape regardless. I'm not a fitness fanatic but I do like to keep in shape, even if I know I won't be as fit as I was before I was 21. I try to do different kinds of workouts and because...
