I installed the Flipboard App. Didn't hate it, but didn't love it much, either. I still prefer using an RSS reader - bloglines works fine to get feeds from blogs I want to read. I don't always check in on it everyday, and I find the list format more convenient. I just choose the posts I'm interested in reading. I tend to read work related blogs at work, so I wouldn't use my phone for that, anyway.
The flippy part of Flipboard was kind of neat, but I wasn't able to find much of interest to set up magazines. If it were easier to find things I'm interested in using Flipboard, it would be more useful to me.
Back to thing 3, the more I play with Google Goggles, the less useful it is for me. It didn't recognize a purse, laundry basket, or even a cat. I can use other apps as a barcode scanner, so I most likely won't use it much.

Hi Jean! I'm Kaia, your 23 Mobile Things Coach. I've had fun catching up on all your posts so far. I agree with you on Flipboard. I know a lot of people like it, but I much prefer list format. I'll have to check Bloglines out. (I swear, I learn more just from coaching.) I haven't heard of that one before! Have you heard of Feedly? That is another RSS reader that you can put into list mode.
I can't wait to hear about the rest of your things. Let me know if you have any questions!
