3 Software Programs I Rely on the Most

Internet Explorer
The application software that I rely on the most has to be Internet Explorer. It is the only web browsing application that I currently use. I use it at home for getting on line and shopping, watching movies, listening to music, and doing my online classwork. I also use it constantly at school for class work.

Microsoft Office
The application software I rely on second most is Microsoft Office 2013. I specifically use the Microsoft Office Word 2013 the most out of the office programs. I use it at home and at school for a variety of different tasks. At home I use it to write essays, create resumes, and save random information that I might forget or loose if it isn't saved on my computer.

Skype
Lastly, I am beginning to rely on the application software called Skype. Skype is very new to me, and I am just begging to learn how to use it. I have known about it's existence for a long time, but just recently obtained a reason to use the software. I am not using all that often yet, but that could change with time as I figure it out. I am using Skype to keep in touch with my girlfriend who is not in the state right now. So far I have only used the text and the face to face video chat parts of the software.

3 Types of Computers I use Most Often

Handheld
The type of computer I use most often I would have to say is my mobile phone. I don't have a smart phone, it's just an old pay as you go flip phone with service provided through Verizon. I use it throughout the day from when I wake up until I go to sleep. I use as my alarm that gets me out of bed. I then use it to check the time and make sure I am running on schedule. I use it throughout the day to text my girlfriend and to keep in contact with other people on rare occasion. I keep the flip phone over getting a smart phone because the monthly plan is cheaper
, the battery life can lasts weeks without needing a charge, I don't play video games or app games almost ever, and I don't want to become addicted to a smart phone like everyone else these days.

Laptop Computer
The type of computer I use 2nd most often would be my laptop computer. My laptop is made by Asus and uses Windows 8. I use my laptop for many activities including shopping, checking craigslist, checking the weather, online banking, and to do my school work. It is capable enough for me and it accomplishes the needs I require it to do.

Truck Stereo
Out of the three types of computers I use most often, I would say my trucks stereo is what comes in third. I use it everyday, and every time I hop in my vehicle to go anywhere. It is made by Alpine, and has many features. It can play CDs, FM and AM radio, and has a USB and AUX port.
