Do I really need ALL of these apps?

04Jan10

In 2009 I bought about 80 apps. As you’ll be able to see from the list below, most of those apps were used for a very short amount of time and then never really opened (or updated) again. There is a core group which I can’t live without – foursquare, twitter, facebook – which are all social media based. Those apps which I tend to used on a regular basis like, Instapaper, Wells Fargo, ATT myWireless, iTransNYC, etc. Then the majority of the apps that take up the screens on my phone that I download and then don’t look at again such as Bebot, Mouthoff, Mad Decent, Tap Tap, etc.

I know many of my friends phones have a similar breakdown to this. I’m thinking for 2010 I should clean these up a little. But to be honest, I will continue to download apps just to check them out. Just time for a little house cleaning!

How many apps do you have? How many do you actually use? What are your favorites?..
