Tuesday Reviewsday, vol. 2

January 26, 2016 Rave, Reviewsday

One of my goals for 2016 is to be better about writing reviews for the products I love. Every Tuesday I’ll be leaving reviews on the applicable store.

Today’s picks are:

– [Noizio](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/noizio/id960716999?mt=8) (iOS) A really good background-noise maker, and free!
– [2Do](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/2do/id303656546?mt=8) (iOS/Mac) A fantastic getting-stuff-done app that’s replaced OmniFocus for me.
– [Reply All](https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/reply-all/id941907967?mt=2) (podcast) A “show about the internet,” but really about modern culture.
– [Forbidden Island](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00J57VU44/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00J57VU44&linkCode=as2&tag=johnaugustcom-20&linkId=KRC76AABLCUBZOEF) (Amazon) A great cooperative game.

If you’re looking for something to review, many readers are probably familiar with some of the things we make, including [Highland](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/highland/id499329572?mt=12), [Weekend Read](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/weekend-read/id502725173?mt=8) and [Writer Emergency Pack](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R6ZLIOY/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00R6ZLIOY&linkCode=as2&tag=johnaugustcom-20&linkId=KG2OFS7AER67FMGO).

Podcasts are especially review-dependent, because they signal to the powers at iTunes to feature certain shows. A review for [Scriptnotes](https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/scriptnotes-podcast/id462495496?mt=2) would be much-appreciated.
