    Break Your Paper Addiction: The Best in Scanners

    November 29, 2014 /

    The dream for many is to go paperless and thanks to advances in scanner technology, it’s a lot closer to reality now than ever before. I have some recommendations that can help you digitize that mountain of paper that surrounds you.

    First impressions of the iPhone 6 Plus

    September 25, 2014 /

    That’s my old iPhone 5 on the left. The new gigantic iPhone 6 Plus on the right. For as 10 million other people have done over the past two weeks, I’ve upgraded to the new and very large iPhone 6 Plus. It’s massive 5.5 inch size was a big reason. I spend a lot of time online. Too much, in fact. And my eyes and my thumbs appreciate the extra real estate the new iPhone provides. The first thing I did after transferring all my apps and settings over from iCloud (a process that took about 45 minutes on my home Wi-Fi network) was head out to the RV and…

    Screwed again: FCC to cut deal with big business

    April 30, 2014 /

    If you use and depend on the Internet, you about to get screwed by the government and big business. Unfortunately, most Americans are too ignorant to care. But make no mistake, the FCC’s telegraphed plans to allow so-called Internet fast lanes to be set up by the likes of Comcast so that big buck companies like Netflix, Google, Amazon and Disney can have special access to stream their programing into your homes faster than their competitors who can’t afford to pay, will have a disastrous effect.
