Everyone has a stored mental list of their favorite places to eat, shop and hang out, but now the process of remembering your favorite places becomes a piece of cake with the Pin Drop app.
The Pin Drop app, a free app created by Caffeinehit, allows you to drop "pins" using your iPhone or the Pin Drop website on a map of places that you like to visit. It also lets you organize those places easily through the use of color-coded categories or by distance or when you dropped the pin. In addition to organizing your favorite hang-outs for you, it lets you search for places and share them with your friends.
Finally, as TechNewsDaily points out, one of the good things about the Pin Drop app is that your lists and places are all private, meaning you won't have to fear others cyber-stalking you.
