I have to admit, I am a productivity geek. I like finding the latest apps, website, or software that will help me in my freedom business and also in my day-to-day existence. The App Store is my friend and I check it almost every other day for the new and noteworthy apps that are featured on the main page. In fact, to tell you the truth, I have more productivity apps than game apps in my iPhone. I told you I am a geek.
So it was rather easy for me to compile my favorite tools and resources in this latest audio blog episode of the Freelance Blend Podcast. Mind you, these are just some of my favorite apps. Soon, I shall be releasing a free guide and video showcasing the complete list of my favorite apps, tools and resources. Watch out for that.
