Fierce Mobile Content has a post on Top "Back-to-School" apps for both iOS and Android mobile devices.  Its aimed at primary and secondary education, but includes a couple of interest to University educators and even media professionals.

  • DropBox - A cloud storage to share your files across devices, or with other users.  And it's free for low-volume users.
  • AT&T Translator - a free real-time translator for your mobile devices.  For now, covers the following languages: English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, and Chinese).
    AT&T Translator marks a new milestone in how quickly speech technology is progressing in mobile. While there are hundreds of apps that translate text from one language to another, they can be time-consume and tedious. AT&T Translator, developed through AT&T Labs on AT&T's Watson platform, identifies languages automatically, saving the user from having to manually input this information. AT&T has stated it is working to add additional languages to the app.
