02 UGNN Facebook Update: : Amazing Facebook stuff you won't believe
Like I posted to our wall this morning, "Thanks for the post ... " to Gary who was one of only TWO who posted something constructive or interesting rather than stupid political crap or idiot memes. You know what a meme is, right? Something that lets the world know you didn't think it up yourself. Well, anyway, this week's antics on Facebook are just as twisted as last week's but they're always interesting and the InfoManager will stay right out there on top of it all!
* Rich kids love Instagram, but Facebook is most popular with lower-income youth
* Port City Post: Here's what happens when a Facebook 'friend' appears in person

03 StockWatch For Apple Watch helps you watch your stocks
I know there are stock mavins out there who have to live on the edge of their portfolios . . . spending yourself rich on the stock market ain't a bad way to go . . . so here's STOCKWATCH a new iOS App for the Apple Watch and it's one tough little turtle!

04 Nobody dies from physical fitness ... kick it up on your Apple Watch
Here comes the latest version of the musical interval timer app TuneTime, adding a full-featured Apple Watch app ahead of the device launch later this month. A slimmed down version of the iOS app, the watch extension allows users to see the most important workout information at a glance.

05 You need a Simple Packing List for iOS Watch? Here it is.
I would have to assume that you probably already know how to pack for travel. But many people like lists so they don't forget something they'll have to buy when they get there. So maybe you'll be needing the Pack app.

06 MindFull List for OSX, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch
MindFull List for OSX, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch Sometimes we wonder if all these stupid little apps are really necessary. But a simple list app across devices may just be a home run! Now there's Apple Watch support for MindFull List, a popular productivity app for iOS and Mac OS X.
