They may be doing more, but they're not solving more problems or adding much more value or productivity.
Most new 'apps' just re-brand the wheel and make it more 'fashionable'.
I used to blame the web, but know the same 'push software out to make monies fast' mentality is even hitting desktop software which is far more bug-ridden.
Software engineering is largely dead. We're in a world of throwing apps at the wall to see what generates money as quick as possible and move on to the next thing.
The web (and mobile devices) will kill personal computing as it alllows corporations to take all of the control away. Sure, you can customise your UI, but it's already been dumbed down.
It's evolution I suppose. I don't have to like it.
