PEOPLE: What's On My Phone BY DEBORAH BARBER, VP of Operations, Nimblist Contact Deborah at dbarber@nimblist.com Use 'Em All the Time Email, Calendar, Messages, Facebook, Messenger I have all my email (personal and work) combined on my phone. It can get a little crazy, but it helps me focus on one location for all email when I'm mobile or in a meeting. I am not good at remembering appointment times, so if it's not on my calendar, I probably will not remember it, and I always prefer to have an alert. I set the alert time based on whether it's an in office, walking or driving to appointment. Our office uses text messages a lot, so that is another app I'm always looking at throughout the day. FB Messenger is basically the same, but I have a different group of people who message me there, so I jump between the two. If you want a quick answer, message me, and please don't call. I really don't like getting phone calls! Facebook gives me a way to keep in touch with friends and keep up with where everyone is when we can't get together. AM Routine The Skimm, The Weather Channel I LOVE the Skimm...it is hands down the best way to get news in my opinion. It's written in plain English and gives you all the highlights. If you want more detail you can jump to a more in-depth explanation or article. It is my mustread every morning while I'm eating breakfast during the week. The app also has a "Skimm Ahead" which clues me in to what is coming up in the week like critical votes or top sporting events. I also have a weird obsession with the daily weather. I check it literally first thing every morning before I get a shower! I use it to plan what I'm wearing and whether we can have dinner on the deck or not. 10 | LANCASTERTHRIVING! | Summer/Fall2017
