It’s no secret that some of my favourite apps are those that tag songs. It can be the most frustrating thing to hear a really good tune on the radio and for the DJ to not announce the name, or as most often happens, I don’t hear what they say! In cases when there is a really good song playing, I don’t leave it to chance; I tag the song using Shazam

In an intitiative spearheaded by Joel Gurin, the head of the FCC’s Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau, the days of seeing an extremely high cell phone bill will become a thing of the past.
