It’s day two of March Apps Madness. We kicked off Thursday with the first round of voting on the games category and continue today with – social apps!
Today we start voting on the next batch of our 32 apps with social apps. These are utilities and fun apps for your Lumia phone that let you seek out your friends and maintain conversations on social networks or through messaging.
If you need to research your choice and study the form, visit the Windows Phone Store – and remember, you can try the apps before you buy on a Nokia Lumia phone.
Under each pairing, select your favorite among the two choices below. We’ll take it from there.
