Mobile Apps for Family Organization

If you want to get organized in the New Year, consider the benefits of SkyDrive for keeping your family organized. If you are not familiar with Microsoft's SkyDrive, it is basically a free site where people can share files with others. It is used for many different purposes. Schools and churches use it to share files with their members or students. Businesses and organizations also use it to easily allow employees to access files from any location. Families can easily become more organized by combining the power of mobile devices such as phones or ipods/ipads and Sky Drive. For example, you can access a sample copy of our family's grocery list at this link. https://skydrive.live.com/edit.aspx/Public/Shopping%20List--Sample?cid=8f67e aa3276e47ba&id=documents?& Both my husband and I can share this file as well as our older children that have mobile devices. When I need an item at the store, I can check it off on the list and it automatically synces with everyone's mobile devices. An easy way to accomplish this is by using the free One Note App from Itunes. If someone buys the item while at the store, they can mark it off and again, it automatically updates again on everyone's devices. By combining One Note and SkyDrive, your family can stay up to date in a multitude of ways. Let us know if you have found ways to stay organized using your mobile devices!
