GPOYW: This is how I start all my Facetime calls.

This is the last week in my apartment on the top floor. Really tempted to buy a Kinect, twelve river dancers, and a girl in high heels stomping her heels in the ground to keep from falling over.

Sorry, Graham Clark.

The boss wants to talk to you. You sure keep your friends waiting, pal.”
I stood still and looked at his flattened nose and club steak ear.
“What about?”
“What do you care? Just keep your nose clean and everything will be jake.The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler
I have known for a while that my name, Jake, meant alright, but I have never seen it used that way before.

Path
Path originally came out last year right after Instagram and was, essentially, an awkward way to share photos with a few friends. The design felt stale and the concept seemed very “me too!”. I could never figure out what the application was supposed to be. The company who made Path came out with an application, not long after, called With. With was a application for sharing who you were with. Again, awkward. I was impressed earlier this week when Path relaunched.Path is essentially a private social network for you and your friends. You can only have up to twenty-five followers and no more. Path allows you to share photos, who you are with, your location, what you are listening to, thoughts, and when you are asleep. That last one, sleep, may sound weird and personal but remember this is for your friends and who could not benefit from letting people close to you know when you are asleep? I hate hearing my phone buzz while I am asleep.
My friends and I all got on board with the relaunch of Path this week. My followers on Twitter and Tumblr do not need to know what I am doing in my personal life but it is fun to have a way to share that with your friends. The great design of the application? That is a bonus.

Fav.tv
In this world of recording and downloading television shows it is hard to keep up with what shows you like. Following a television show on Twitter and Facebook is the worst. Entertainment blogs? Do not get me started! A new website has came in to save the day.When you sign up with Fav.tv it will ask you if you would like the TV shows you have liked on Facebook to automatically be followed. The shows you follow will show up in your personalized TV schedule that you can subscribe to in iCal and on your iPhone and iPad. When the show you are following has aired a new episode it is added to your queue so you can mark it as watched, and say whether or not you enjoyed that episode. I can also see what my friends are watching and what they have to say about the shows.
Their iPhone application is simple, but it works out really well. I have been using it to see how many more episodes of Boardwalk Empire are left in this season and when they air. According to this application I have two more intense weeks of Nucky Thompson!
