logo quiz: how well do you know your companies?

apple has a new app for the iphone called logo quiz, that essentially is what the title says, a quiz on logos to see if you know what they are. this game has been highly addicting for me. it also has been very eye opening because it shows me how apparent logos are in our lives, and how many of them we are able to recognize immediately, such as the gecko for geico. as you continue playing the game, the logos get harder to guess, which makes for a very frustrating but intriguing game. you can get a certain number of hints that help you out but giving three facts about that company who has the logo. go check it out! 

New Media Review

Something that I've been using lately and I wanted to talk about for my new media review project is an application called "Draw Something." This interactive app allows you and another person to play pictionary with each other in different locations by just using a smart phone! You can select an opponent by looking through friends on Facebook, searching someone's username, or facing a random opponent. The object of the game is to have the other person guess the drawing correctly, and if they did, you both get points! My friends and I are already addicted to this app, and have used it every day. Watch out "Words With Friends" and "Hanging With Friends", this app will slowly take you down!
