Picking the perfect song(s).

February 13th, 2012

So Kristie and I got iPhones. Yippety skip.

Don’t get me wrong I’m a Mac user and I enjoy my ipod and what not, it’s just really humbling and kinda depressing standing around at the Rogers store and having a 17 year old teach me how to use my phone. I should note, we’re not technophobes, we use a variety of hardware and software every day as part of our jobs, it’s just… I think I might be an old person now. When my new phone rang for the first time, I didn’t answer it. I was afraid. The second time it rang, I answered it but I couldn’t hear anything so I had to have my entire conversation with my Mother on speakerphone. I resolved the problem by googling my stupidity and then removing the thin piece of plastic that was covering the front of the phone. So there’s that. Also, I tend to drop the controller for the television every single time I pick it up, so at the moment I am handling my phone as though it were the Rothschild Faberge Egg.

The point of this is to tell you all about this handy new App we discovered while searching around for things for our phone to do besides talk to people who are not standing in front of us.This App was created by Appstract Art with assistance from Toronto’s very own Indie Wedding DJ. We had the pleasure of working with him at Kathryn and Brendan’s wedding this past summer, and can vouch for his ability to keep the dance floor full and moving. This is him describing how the App works.

This would have come in very handy when we planning our wedding let us know what you think.
