ReplyDeleteNo problem Donna :) Everyone put so much work into their App reviews and I wanted to make sure that we could preserve the info. in one place for future reference. I am excited to try many of them out. This course is proving to be very valuable.
DeleteWow Theresa! I love how you started off with the Sea Of Apps video. I commented in class how amazed I was at the number of apps there are and there are some of my thoughts in video. Helen
