March 25, 2011— -- March Madness fans are finding new ways to view all of the action. According to the NCAA, 36 percent of people who streamed the official coverage last week watched it on their iPhones or iPads, putting the on-demand app at the top of the iTunes chart.
Color App
Have you ever taken a really cool photo and couldn't wait to share it with friends? A new smartphone app called Color lets anyone nearby who's also running the app see your pictures. Anyone. So you have to be careful what you shoot. It's available for iPhones and Android phones.
Girl Scout Cookie Finder App
The Girl Scouts are making it really easy to buy their cookies. They've released their own app for the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch that will guide you to the nearest cookie sales. The cookie finder also provides sales data, in case you wanted to see whether Thin Mints or Tagalongs are more popular. It gives a whole new meaning to cookies on your mobile device.
