Time for our monthly round-up and this time too, we have a mixed bag of apps –there is an app for great quotes, to find out the answers of questions that start with “How to..”, to place orders at restaurants and to stay updated on the latest events in your city. It is encouraging to find that developers are taking a long-hard look at pain areas in the daily lives of people, converting these into app opportunities and building the right type of apps that fill the gap, thereby addressing real needs.

Let’s find out in detail how each of them (powered by SMS, thereby decimating the internet) are creating a stir ----
