Crowdbooster

Crowdbooster is a good tool for twitter lovers. It collects statistics of retweets, favorites and replies a user has. Using graphs and charts, it breaks down how many people interacted with your tweet within a week and a months period. The app also lets users know how to attract more followers and fans. This tool also works with other apps such as FaceBook. This tool is good for users to get an idea of the main interests of you and your followers.
I am a big twitter fan and decided to test out this app. At first, it seemed a little confusing, but I was able to teach myself of all of its functions. Crowdbooster will need access to a few tweets I put out in the future in order to process all of the data. The app is free to use, which benefits it from other apps. The strengths of this app included how easy it was to link several accounts to the app, as well as move around within the app. Its weaknesses is the amount of time it needs to process data. In order to like an app such as Crowdbooster, its users will need to check back on it within the next few days upon downloading it.

Online Shopping

Shopping is something that mostly everyone enjoys. You get to splurge your money on essentials such as clothes or home goods. Sometimes shopping can be a hassle, causing someone to travel to several places to shop around. Although I enjoy shopping around in different stores, shopping online is much more convenient for myself and others. Online shopping is something almost everyone is guilty of.
Online shopping is easy for people to bargain shop without having to move around from store to store, but in the comfort of your own home. One of the greatest factors of online shopping is not having to wait on line at a store, especially during holiday season. One of my favorite stores to shop online at are NastyGal. This store is not available to shop at anywhere but online. Online shopping offers sales from clothing to home goods. Online shopping is safe to use on store websites, however there are some fraud websites that may scam you into taking your money. Shoppers need to be careful when entering credit card information online because hackers can get a hold of your information, especially on an unprotected website. Another good factor of online shopping is that it is available 24/7. As long as you have a credit/debit card, you are able to shop for whatever you are looking for. Some stores even offer free shipping on certain products. Overall, online shopping is a convenient, easy way to browse and purchase some of your favorite items all in the comfort of your own home.
