Bscott400_0B. Scott:
WhatsApp. It's probably the one I use the most. It allows me to stay connected with my friends not only in the United States, but internationally as well.

The one app I can't live without is definitely Twitter. I love my Twitter.

Spotify. But I really only listen to two songs. I really only listen to Katy Perry's "Roar" while I'm running at full speed on the treadmill and then [anything by Gossip]. I could just buy those songs and that would be cheaper than a Spotify subscription, but hey, I don't want to tell me how to live my life.

Twitter! Since becoming a working parent, my time in front of the computer has been cut in half, yet my need for a creative outlet has only increased. The Twitter app allows me to express myself with one hand while shaking a rattle with the other.

Google Maps. Waze always takes me to a major intersection that is impossible to cross, so it's dead to me right now.

Lena Waithe:
Instagram. I'm obsessed with it. It's amazing. I love a good outfit picture, as my followers know. I show people my outfits before I go to work. And I love seeing people's lives--a little snapshot.

Instagram. It's so entertaining. It gives me a little escape. I follow a lot of my fans, and I follow a lot of people who are inspiring to me. I like to take a little escape from my life and laugh.

Twitter and Headspace

Yelp! ... Bria and I, generally, 9 times of out 10, rarely make a bad [restaurant] choice, or even other places, because of reading other people's experiences. We rely on it to make our decisions for us. And Pandora.

Youtube400_0RJ Aguiar:
Twitter is this glorious hodgepodge of information and entertainment. The day that DOMA and Prop. 8 was announced, I was checking Twitter, because you get all those updates in real time. And also, I follow several comedians, so getting their take on it is just awesome. And you can keep up with friends.

Zackford400_0Zack Ford:
I was a late adopter of a smartphone and still don't depend on it for anything, even if I may waste time browsing Grindr or playing Angry Birds. Twitter is probably the most essential app I use there.

I could not live without my Fly Delta app -- I'm on the road so much.

I use Epicurious a lot. I'm a vegetarian and it's hard to find good vegetarian recipes.

Gregoryvarnum400_0Gregory Varnum:
On my iPhone, I use Zite, which is my favorite way of discovering news related to topics I have a strong interest in and also sharing them on Twitter and Facebook. It can be hard to stay on top of both news articles that I need for work and staying on top of tech articles that I need to stay on top of the trends for things like social media. So I appreciate an app that learns my behavior and just magically finds the most relevant articles that I'd like to read and share with others. Sadly, Zite is going to be shut down in the future after being bought by Flipboard, so I'm going to have to figure out how to live without it soon I suppose.
