iphone apps for students - article

Top 10 Iphone Apps for Students
This article explains that iPhone Apps are not just fun and games. Students can choose apps that are useful for organization, studying, homework help, and conversions. Convert, now one of the top iPhone apps, does conversions for pretty much anything...angles, area, temperature and force...etc.The artilce is focusing on the high school / college student it seems with apps like Algebra pro and homework helper. I think thatthe top ten list could make use of the GPS / location features and create an app with a special map of a campus (this would be a huge benefit on the UGA Athens campus which is huge and very spread out) that would include buildings as well as give some kind ofinformation of what is in those buildings (MLC: student use computers, coffee shop...etc). After reading this article I came up withprobably 5 additional apps that I think would benefit college students much more...now to develop them!
