This made me laugh...

Me-to-pro-lol or Meto-prolol....

How many times have you guys mispronounced a drug name?!?!....well fear no more, this app helps you learn the correct way to say these hard drug names!!!! 

I sure know a lot of student pharmacists who could use this app!! 

"Drug Pronunciation is a simple application that will play back audio of the correct pronunciations of over 2500 drugs used in medicine today (which includes the top 200 drugs) First impressions are everything, and nothing screams out inexperience and incompetence like butchering the pronunciation of drugs! Be confident when pronouncing drugs by knowing how to pronounce them properly beforehand. Physicians, pharmacists, medical students, nursing students, physician assistants, medical techs, pre-med students, foreign health professionals… Virtually anyone in, or interested in the health professional field will benefit from this application - $ 2.99 from the iTunes Store."

The more we use our cell phones....

Interesting article about fecal matter on cell phones in the UK. 
I suggest we start washing our hands more with the increasing use of apps on our phones!! It is pretty gross the amount of germs we gather on our hands daily. I try to wipe my cell phone down with a Clorox wipe at the end of the day so I keep it clean.

Wheelchair technology....

Imagine adding a GPS system to the wheel chair controlled by the iphone. It would turn automatically by your coordinates.

Also, if all motorized scooters had a usb port, then the user would be able to use this port to charge any type of phone, e-reader, or anything they desired.

I think I will contact the scooter store and sell them my idea. #somanyideas
