“What’s the deal? Doesn’t it seem like cell phone manufacturers time the release date of the next generation iPhone or Droid with the exact moment you plunk down money on the “current version.”

So, what do you do with the gadgets you’ve outgrown when you’re ready for the latest and greatest? Stash them in a drawer? Nah, too messy. Toss them? God we hope not, landfills are full enough already. We have a better idea, sell your cell, or computer, or e-reader (basically any of your electronic relics) on Gazelle.com.

This site will help you appraise your old electronics, tells you how much they’ll pay you for it and you sit back and collect the cash. Find out how to recycle and sell your electronics so you can get green, while being green.”

Inbox overload. No one should have to suffer from this awful affliction. And yet tens of thousands, maybe even hundreds of thousands of email users are plagued by overstuffed inboxes every single day. But there is a cure. It’s a free service called OtherInbox, or “OIB” as the cool kids say.

OIB basically weeds through all your emails and pulls out the automated ones from the ones from real people and then files them in different folders. So, that sale site coupon will come into the OIB Shopping folder, but the credit card statement will go into the OIB Financial folder. Then you can look at what you want, when you want without having to sift through dozens of other emails clogging up your inbox. And best of all, that email list you ended up on, but never signed up for, well that can be moved into the OIB Unsubscribe folder where they’ll do the breaking up for you.

OIB works with Gmail, Yahoo and AOL and has a bunch of other nifty features we can’t wait to share with you. So watch how quickly and easily it tames Carley’s out-of-control inbox. Plus you can check out her adorable PJ’s.

Keeping track of recipes is a pain— they’re all over the place, yet never in the right place when it’s time to make dinner. And then, there’s the grocery list… which doesn’t do you much good when you head to the grocery store without it. Sure you could sift through all your cookbooks, or write “milk, eggs, bread” on your hand, but why, when there’s Ziplist?

Sometimes it’s the smallest tasks that take the most time. And who doesn’t have a never ending to do list that seems impossible to get through? Wouldn’t it be great if you could have a personal assistant to take care of all that stuff for you? Guess what, there is an app for that. And it is Siri-ously amazing.
In this week’s Twirl check out Carley hanging out with her gal pal–the wonderfully talented singer, and typically time-challenged mom– Lisa Loeb. She’s looking to simplify her life, just like we all are. You’ll be as amazed as she was when we introduced her to Siri, a virtual assistant that is at your beck and call 24/7. Siri will send you reminders for things you need to do, find businesses and restaurants wherever you are, show you what kid’s events are going on, and even create a tweet, all without touching a keypad. This productivity app uses simple voice command, so you say it, Siri does it. Don’t you wish you could say the same about your family?

Of all the fitness apps out there we fell in love with Nike Training Club app. It’s like having a personal trainer in the palm of your hand. Not only is it super slick, and really easy to navigate, but it also integrates your favorite music to get pumped up to straight from your iTunes playlists. Eye of the Tiger, baby! It has a bunch of workouts to choose from, videos on how to do them correctly, and even rewards you can unlock the more you work out. It’s only available for the iPhone, but we also really liked FitSync for Android as an alternative.
So no more excuses, Ladies. Your skinny jeans await!
