Snap Chat!…Now you see it, now you don’t

snapchat_icon_310

In true Inspector Gadget/James Bond stylee, in 1-10 seconds your picture message or video will self distruct! -But with less explosives (it’ll just do a vanishing act)
Have fun with your friends. Take a snap of yourself looking totally uncool or just sharing a silly moment that you don’t want them to use as ammo against you forever.
With snap chat, you simply download the App for free, give yourself a username and add your contacts through adding your mobile number. You can select to just receive messages from your mates and off you pop.

Take a pic or Vid, add a short message, select you mate and send. Snap Chat will notify you when they have opened it and when you receive messages.
You control the time of picture (up to 10 secs) by keeping your finger on the message. As soon as you let go,the pic disappears forever.

We’ve had so much fun with this app in the office, taking crazy, silly pics…but beware. It doesn’t take a techy to tell you, if your friend has an Iphone, its pretty simple to hold the pic and screen shot at the same time! You have been warned. Keep it clean and go have some fun and download Snap Chat.

Ok it’s Bank holiday and the sun is shining, you’re off work and what to do? Get in the car and head for the seaside of course…along with a few other thousand people who all have the same idea and everyone is looking for somewhere to park. Well use your trump card and beat everyone to a space by downloading the super helpful AA Car parking app.

It’s compatible with iphones (£1.99), Android (£1.50), Nokia (£1.50) and Windows phone (£1.99)
It covers all paid and free car parks in the UK and Ireland. You can filter free car parking, street parking through to secured parking and of course once you have chosen you will be directed right to the car park entrance through the phone’s GPS.

You can find a car park close to your location or plan and search an area you are travelling to, (Yeah you’re saying your Sat Nav can do the same, but here’s the best bit) you can check updates of how many spaces are left on the car park and best of all the PRICE. No need to drive on a car park again and feel the sting in your wallet, as you’ll already be prepared and compared the cheapest car parks available.
What we love about this app is you can use it to direct you back to your space when you’ve gone and got yourself lost. No family arguments about where you parked the car, just more about who’s paying for Ice Creams.
What you waiting for? Jump in the car and drive to the beach babyyyy!

Made of Gold and Diamonds, you can’t get much more bling than these cans. If you fancy splurging that amount just cos you can, you better make a trip to Harrods to make the purchase. Just don’t be expecting your rich buddy to be lending you these any time soon to go to the gym.
