Links Roundup: “Is it already the end of March?” edition

Contrary to the old saying, March came in like a lamb and is going out like a lion – here and in several other parts of the U.S.    I hope you and your families are safe, wherever you live!

Here are a few interesting articles I’ve come across in the last few days; I hope something here is of help to you:

Mashable featured 10 iPhone Apps to Help You Manage Your Job Search

Our old friends Craig and Linda Martin of the Indie Travel Podcast just featured a similar post but of course this one’s focused on travel:  The Best iPhone Travel Apps

Well, I lied in the intro:  I discovered this post quite a while ago, and somehow never shared it with you; sorry about that.  Check out 13 Backup Plans for the Modern Traveler at Vagabondish

And for something completely different, J.D. @ the popular Get Rich Slowly posted yesterday about retirement calculators (something many of us might want to revisit, unfortunately) – How Much Do You Need To Save For Retirement;  his post featured a really neat retirement calculator called FIREcalc – I played with it a bit and it’s definitely worth checking out.

Finally – another collection of awesome desktop wallpapers, this one from dzineblog: 45 Really Fantastic Desktop Wallpapers

Have a great Friday and weekend!!
