Are you a “fly by the seat of your pants” kind of traveler? While a little stressful at times, if you want to save some money while getting the same accommodations, waiting until the last-minute can be a great strategy.

That’s where the iPhone app Jetsetter comes into play.

One of the cool things that you can do on an iPad is read magazines. When the slate was first announced, it was touted as one of the main selling points, but it’s a feature that seems to have flown under the radar for the most part. Sure, Apple launched Newsstand, but most articles written on it are simply directions for tricking iOS into hiding it in a folder. Of course, it doesn’t have to be this way, as there are some fantastic apps for magazine lovers.
