The app is essentially a marketing tool for Hope Family Wines which pairs their wine with music. The party itself featured not only neverending pours of their wines but Jason Bentley as dj. Suffice it to say, the party was all right, but the app sounded like a fun idea and I had meant to include it in a post about <strong>five more favorite iPhone apps</strong>. Anyway, here tis.
  </p>
  
  <p>
    <strong><a target="_blank" href="https://foursquare.com/">foursquare (Free):</a></strong> Seems like no one gets just why I love this app so much. What can I say? Letting my friends and Tweeps know where I am, getting points for checking in and winning badges just appeals to me. It&#8217;s like a game with the goal being to become mayor of EVERYwhere.

    <strong><a target="_blank" href="https://happyhoured.com/">Happy Houred (Free)</a></strong>: If I could make a Caroline on Crack app it would be something like this one! Full disclosure, though: My friends @livethelushlife and @mysteryaction have something to do with this app. But even if they didn&#8217;t, I&#8217;d still love it. It&#8217;s easy to use and finds some of the best drinking specials in cities across the U.S., L.A. included. What&#8217;s not to love? You can search by location, type of bar, type of drink, day and even time of day in addition to name.
  </p>
  
  <p>
    <strong><a target="_blank" href="https://blogs.laweekly.com/style_council/tech/la-weekly-iphone-app/">LA Weekly (Free)</a></strong>: This nifty app from our city&#8217;s fave alternative weekly gives you easy access to tips, restaurant reviews, event listings and nightlife coverage. Now if only it linked to the other blogs on the Weekly. Ahem, Squid Ink. But you can also email items to your friends and say, &#8220;Hey! Go here!&#8221;
  </p>
  
  <p>
    <strong><a target="_blank" href="https://redlaser.com/">RedLaser ($1.99)</a></strong>: My brother introduced me to this app and I can&#8217;t stop playing with it. I&#8217;m sure there are tons of other apps like this out there but this is the one I use and like. In any case, it&#8217;s great for comparison-shopping. You go to a store, scan an item&#8217;s bar code (the iPhone emits a little sound once the scan has gone through) and the app will generate a list of online retailers via thefind and Google Search that sell that same item and for what price.
  </p>
  
  <p>
    <strong><a target="_blank" href="https://www.winedj.com/">Liberty School WineDJ (Free)</a></strong>: This is simply a fun app to play with. It&#8217;s made especially to showcase the Hope Family Wines. You select which wine you want and then it gives you the option to create a playlist or locate the wine in your area. Each varietal represents a different music genre, i.e. Zinfandel is The Roots, Marsanne/Viognier is Paul Simon and Cabernet Sauvignon/Syrah is James Brown.
