wechat 微信 to talk with chinese friends， 

UC browser to check out the latest chinese news,

weibo 微博 to follow current  chinese social media trends.

you can download LINE and add me to your contact, that way we can have some chat from time to time in Mandarin! and oyu can also record your audio-message there for me to check your pronunciation.

I recommend you download bing dictionary for your smart phone and your computer.

this dictionary has a pop up dictionary feature so that as you learn to read Chinese, it can help you understand unfamiliar characters and words

Yes I have WeChat and Weibo. Weibo is a little too much at the moment though. I don't really get a lot of the things they talk about on there.
