My friends at ATT have been busy. Not only busy obtaining some cool new phones like the tiny HTC Aria, but also working on some cool mobile apps to keep us busy while out and about. Here is a list of the new goodies to check out. You can download them all using the links below, or by going to the AT&T app center.

AT&T Social Net

About: Shoot a photo and the Shoot It app automatically converts your digital photo into a beautifully printed postcard that is inserted into the mail the next day! Snap a photo of your child’s first day of school and send a postcard to a relative across the country, across the globe, or just across town. Great to capture those timeless moments!
