The holiday season is finally here and that means there’s tons of traveling in our schedules. No better time for us to outline some interesting social applications for those of you on the go.

B4YOUBOARD

I don’t know about you, but when I finally pass security and get a prime seat at the gate, the last thing I want to do is get up with all of my carry on bags and look for some snacks. As always, there’s an app for that. With B4YOUBOARD, you can order your food and nonalcoholic drinks and get it delivered to you for no extra charge. This service is only at a few airports including Chicago’s O’hare, but it seems like the kind of app that we’ll see more of.

With Facebook’s new Timeline feature launching for the general public very soon, Facebook Privacy concerns have been all over social media news sources.

“The Social Enterprise Summit is THE gathering for social practitioners and experts who are using business methods to solve the most pressing human, social, and environmental problems.”

Heather Williams and Jenn McTigue will be there as well live tweeting from the event under @SEAlliance and @BlueyeCreative where you can keep up with great talking points that come up throughout the summit.  You can also follow the conversation with the #SEASummit hashtag on Twitter. Keeping yourself informed about the summit is easy. You can also check out the Facebook and LinkedIn pages for the latest conversation surrounding the event next week.
