Mar 17 - How An App Made Me Want To Fling My Phone Out The Window

If you know me you’ll know I’m signed up to every social media site. I Facebook, Tweet, Vine, Instagram, Snap and I’ve questioned the usefulness of LinkedIn on more than one hundred occasions but still kept a profile on there. I’m not obsessed with social media but as I mentioned somewhere else, I am extremely interested in how people interact on the Internet; so I try everything. In fact, there’s nothing I like more than browsing the App Store on my iPhone or iPad and finding something interesting. For free, of course, I rarely pay; I’m that kind of person.

Around Gibraltar there are about 50 red plaques which mark historical landmarks, monuments and artefacts, such as the one on the depression carriage at Casemates. However, many of these plaques are becoming eyesores rather than attractive reflections of Gibraltar’s cultural and natural heritage. They were put in position during the 1970’s and 1980’s, so they are historical in their own right but they have not been maintained or restored for many years leading to the deterioration in their appearance.
