How good is Good for Enterprise?
How “good” Good for Enterprise is for you may largely depend upon how your company’s IT department implements it. Good, after all, isn’t designed for you rather it is designed to meet the company’s needs first and foremost. Good is a self-contained universe to give employees secure remote access to corporate email, calendar and sometimes more. How useful Good is for you will largely depend upon how restrictive your IT department is in the deployment.

Wallbase, a Simple and Beautiful Wallpaper App for Android.
If you’re like me, you’re always changing up your wallpaper. It’s a quick and easy way to give your phone a new look. I’ve used just about every wallpaper app into the Google Play store and never really liked one. They all got the job done, but are slow, bloated and just ugly. That’s where Wallbase comes in. It’s a simple and beautifully designed app with a great selection of over a million wallpapers.
Wallbase not only looks good, but its very functional. You can save, set, and share wallpapers all within the app. Browsing is simple with “popular” and “random” categories, as well as a built in search engine. Wallbase uses tags in order to sort images which makes it much easier to find what you’re looking for. My only gripe is there are no traditional categories like “landscape”, “cats”, etc… Of course searching will find anything tagged with these terms, so it’s not a deal breaker.
The app is free in the Google Play store and is ad supported, or can spring for the $1.99 ad free version.
