Ron’s Android App Recommendation
(This app can be found on Google Play from your Android phone,
tablet or viewed on your PC from the link below.) Get Pocket (formerly known as Read It Later)

Put articles, videos or pretty much anything into Pocket. Save directly from your browser or from apps like Twitter, Flipboard, Pulse and Zite. If it’s in Pocket, it’s on your phone, tablet or computer. You don’t even need an Internet connection. Basically you can create your own informational magazine. Then go back to the phone/table app or log into GetPocket.com from any computer.

Pocket apps are out there for every smart phone made today. Go to your store and download it for free.
