How to Recycle Your Technology

Hi All,

We all have tech - smartphones, iPads, iPhones, tablets, phones, ear buds, wall chargers, laptops, smartwatches, desktop computers, watches, hard drives, monitors, computer mice, DVD's, CD's, CD-ROM's, CD players, DVD players, batteries, headphones and more - somewhere in our closet or under our bed.  Its everywhere this stuff!

And what happens when a new phone or laptop or tablet arrives in the stores and folks buy it?  What do you do with the older devices and equipment? Indeed, that would make for a lot of extra landfill garbage!

So...how do you recycle your older tech in an environmentally safe manner?  Read on for websites and stores that have some type of recycling program(s)!

AppSmart and Other App Sites

Hi All,

Just found an interesting link on the New York Time website.  Its called App Smart and can be found at this link. App Smart enables users to find the best mobile apps for your needs (tracking fitness, creativity or falling in love...).  Note that App Smart is video based so users get to watch on their device.  A very random sampling of videos includes: Avoiding Sunburns, Writing Poetry, Going Green and History 101.

Below I've listed a major site that reviews various apps for various Android and Apple devices. 
148Apps - includes reviews, new apps, price drops, top 148, how to, feeds and more.  Links also to All iPhone Reviews, iPhone Games, All iPad Reviews, iPad Games, Hardware and more. 

Finally, click on this link from PCMag.com for their section on Apps.  PCMag also has hands-on reviews of iPad Apps, iPhone Apps, BlackBerry Apps, Android Apps, Palm Apps, Windows Mobile Apps,  Mobile Utilities and Mobile Games...click here for a few of PCMag's 100 Best articles: 100 Best Android Apps, 100 Best iPhone Apps, and the 100 Best iPad Apps.

Enjoy the download and the apps!
