Let’s face it: cataloguing the contents of your home is a time consuming tasks. Get with the times! Now that it’s 2012 and you’re making good on that resolution to stay organized The National Association of Insurance Commissioners brings you myHome Scr.APP.book.

And if you can get past the slightly awkward name you’ll find an app ready to go to bat for homeowners by cataloguing clutter into organized lists. File lists away to help you determine the amount of insurance coverage you need or – should something not so great happen – during the claims process.

Document possessions with photos, organize by room or area of the home and even get tips on disaster preparedness for homeowners.

Scr.APP.book is on our list of must-haves for 2012, but to be fair we asked an “impartial” third party to evaluate the app and confirm our recommendation. Let’s see what Theo Theft had to say…

Theo Theft in Action

“What kinda name is Scr.APP.book anyway? If ya can’t even pronounce it then it must be bad fer ya! Besides, these wise guys over at NAIC think they can help people avoid me? Who do they think they are? I tell ya, it used to be easy – I come in, take a few valuables, and walk out. Half the time no one even knew I was there for months! Now it’s all catalogue this, take a picture of that… What’s the world comin’ to?”

After a review like that we would have some reservations about recommending Scr.APP.book, but if it get’s Theo’s sticky fingers in a frenzy then we know we’re on to something good.

‘Tis right before the holidays and all through our blog
There are Risk Monsters toasting and drinking eggnog!

They don’t take time off or go away on vacations
But this time of year they all raise their libations

to you and your family as a holiday a greeting
and to thank you and yours for Facebooking and tweeting.

Ooops! Now Lyle’s pointing fingers, Theo’s nabbing a gift
Flint thinks he look hot, Sigmund Storm just looks miffed,

Willy and Felix, being their usual selves
are sloppy and gushing, not at all happy elves.
Please ignore their bad manners (they excel being pests)
as we humans at Bankers do what we do best:

You have our firm pledge to keep Risks from encroaching
as we, too, wish you cheer with the New Year approaching!

Our goal, as you know, with our See Through Insurance
is to make things transparent, so you don’t need endurance

to learn about policies and coverage and such…
And for joining these efforts we thank you so much!

Happy Holidays from all of us at Bankers!

The insurance experts at Bankers are helping you fend off those pesky Risks using more than kind words. That’s why we thought you should know about the Emergency Data app from EMS Options, Chasing4Life Disaster Response Team and Sumter Disaster Animal Response Team.

These intrepid organizations have taken it upon themselves to create a mobile app that stores all of the critical information needed in the time of a crisis. That means you, your pets and your love ones can rest a little easier knowing you’re prepared.

The app stores medical data, emergency contacts and preferred hospitals. Having information – including your insurance documentation – close at hand and in electronic format can be a major time (and maybe life) saver.

Flint “Fires” Back

In keeping with journalistic best practices we asked resident risk Flint Fire what he thinks of the new app.

“It burns me up to think that these so-called smartphones are helping people avoid Risks! It’s a travesty and I’m currently in talks with my legal advisors to find out how to put a stop to this. What’s the world coming to when a risk like me can be sidelined with software!”

Check out the app here and let us know what you think.
