1 Thing You Can Do With You iPod Which Everybody Seems to Have Forgotten

OK, so you've seen all the blogs, virals, youtube videos and thousands of adverts advertising what NEW and IMPROVED features various app's may offer.... It seems that using an iPod as a sprit level and other fairly useless functions is a growing trend, and soon no doubt builders the world over will down tools and purchase a multi-functional iPod which is capable of Sawing, Hammering and Screwing, drilling and any other task builder's may have to do daily.

Dont Get me Wrong, I think some of the iPod and iPhone features and app's are absolutely genius and provide an excellent service, made much more convenient and user friendly than ever before. However in general these app's are few and far between.

Some of you may be wondering at this stage what the "Thing" is that everybody seemed to have forgotten. Its simple, Why aren't we using the iPod for the task in which it was invented? Playing Music.... I have seen several adverts recently regarding Apple and the iPhone 3gs and iPod Touch, and at no point in the advertisement did apple mention what the iPod was best used for (an MP3 player BTW). It seems to be all about the extras you get with package now days!

So The One thing that everybody should try using an iPod for is to store and play your favourite music;-)

I'm obviously Kidding, the iPod is obviously an inspirational invention so here are some other things you can do with it that you might not of thought of?

Here are some uses for an iPod or iPhone include;

1) App's can transform your iPhone from a simple phone and mp3 playing device to navigation device, resource finder, account manager or so much more depending on which app you use. Look long and hard, some of the best apps are still to be popularised.

2) Google Maps, Every contact with a physical address (registered in Google) in your contact book can be found on Google maps, even better these contacts are automatically found when browsing for directions say to a restaurant stored as a contact. Simply search for the contact and you have directions to the location from where your standing. Genius!!

3) Mobile internet, where ever you are you have full access to the internet, emails and all that the internet brings.

4) Videos and TV programmes, The newer iPods are capable of storing more information than ever before. Take advantage of this and load your favourite videos and TV programs to watch at your convenience.

5) The iPod can be transformed into a truly mobile MP3 Player with the use of an iPod car kit. Plug in to your Car Stereo and you have full access to all of your tracks while you drive
iPod car accessories are useful for long journeys, car accessories for the iPod can range from protective cases, to protect against scratches and more serious damage. Through to fully integrated iPod car kits which provide a digital connection combined with iPod and music control through the stereo / steering wheel adapters and charging facilities.
