One of the best parts of my job here at Hammock Inc. is getting to grab my camera, photograph a person that I might never run across in my everyday life, and learn a little bit about them while I interview them for an article for one of our client magazines.

This morning, I got to do just that.

I spent a few minutes with a local toymaker, taking pictures of her skilled hands at work, learning about the local materials she and her husband use to make their toys, and talking to her about their business and how they got started 34 years ago.

And the whole time, my iPhone was working, recording every word. I didn't have to worry about writing down every single word as she answered my questions. We just visited like newfound friends with a common love for wooden toys, and my little iPhone captured it all for me with an app called Recorder.

There's an app for almost everything you can image: finding a restaurant, finding your car and even finding a date. But when an app can help me get my work done in an easy and efficient way, I just have to share!
