Chrome Smashing
“While many apps slightly overlap in terms of
functionality, there tends to be a few black holes in
each app that require the use of another app to
complete the process. This leads us to App
Smashing. . . the process of using multiple apps in
conjunction with one another to complete a final task
or project.”
