Love the boopsie. Lightweight, fast way to find information you need and impress people with your mastery of finding random factoids on the internet!
Totally agree. It’s simple and fast.
I don’t think I have seen any mobile search app that bundles as many essential sources and works as fast as this one.
lol @ dave. i never thought of it that way… i need to impress my friends more with my skills instead of what i have been doing which is …”what do you mean you dont use Boopsie! it’s the fastest mobile search around. download it free and search by the word itself instead of scrolling through websites that dont work on your phone anyways. it has saved me so much time searching for exactly what i need…” on and on until i drive them crazy!
but they download it. and use it.
oh how i do love Boopsie.
