When I was down in Florida, my brother and our friends told me about something they started doing every day: 2 Hours of No Screen Time. The idea is that for 2 hours every day, they forget about their phones, their computers, the TV, and any other screen they otherwise spend too much time in front of. Instead, they do something…
Recently I was updating the widgets on my homepage to promote the new WP in One Month. I decided to do so with the logo and a caption, making Jetpack’s Image Widget the perfect candidate. I uploaded the logo, added a title, then copy and pasted the text from the website’s ‘Jumbotron’ area for the caption. I clicked ‘Save’ and something…
It has become a bit of a time-honored tradition for me to do gift guides around the holidays. This year I decided instead of making yet another post, I’ll create this page and child pages that I can update each year. I have some big plans for when I (finally) redesign this site, but for now, check ’em out: Great Gifts…
If you’ve purchased a power bank charger or USB outlet from Amazon, there’s a solid chance the devices came from Hisgadget Inc. They have quite an extensive catalog of products to make sure you’re always fully charged at home and on the go. I recently had the opportunity to play with two of those products: the Intocircuit Power Castle Dual USB Portable Charger &…
I wrote perhaps my most popular blog post ever just over 2 months ago. I talked about how I bought, used, and subsequently didn’t like the iPhone 6. I would be sticking with Android…or so I thought. Shortly after that post got popular, I was compelled to take another look at iOS.

However, as I should have an iOS device to test on and there are a few seemingly good things about iOS, I decided to get an…
If you’ve done a Google Search on your mobile device recently, you may have noticed that Google adds a bit of text in the search results alerting you to the fact that a website is (or is not) mobile friendly. This can have a big impact on your website’s search ranking.
I got a Chromebook a couple of weeks ago (this one to be exact) as a machine to use around the house for browser and writing and such. I have an iPad Mini but frankly I don’t feel like I can get a lot accomplished on it besides reading. My hope was that the Chromebook would fix that.
In the last of my old year/new year posts, I want to talk about some things I think will happen in 2015 (technology-wise). It seems like every year, tech is getting better but there’s a few things that I think will really take the cake this year.
I’m an early adopter; I’m the guy that a lot of companies rely on to see if their product really works, in the real world. I’m the guy that those companies rely on to create buzz about their product and get other people to buy it. I’m also a web developer who freelanced for a lot of years, and I…
