Have an exciting TODAY.

TODAY App
TODAY’s iPhone App

TODAY‘s iPhone app icon caught my attention today while I was travelling on the bus. It looks a whole lot sexier than the flat chilli red that it used to be.  The red almost seems to be hiding something it’s not telling you, tempting you to open the app for more [Read more…]
