An Apple A Day – Day 15
Disclaimer: Sorry everyone, unfortunately, my wife said the pool experiment was a no go. Apparently, I’m not allowed to throw a $1500 device in the water overnight and see if what they said was true. But if you’re interested in the answer, boy have I got a video for you. So let’s kick off the…
An Apple A Day – Day 14
Ahh, the end of week two. Let’s start with a personal challenge and finish on a good note. A Few Things The iPad is suited for a lot of things, but precise overlays of graphics on an iPad are not it’s forte. This was almost maddening as swiping across the screen could cause a presentation…
An Apple A Day – Day 13
Day 13, not a good number but not a bad day! PollEverywhere I began the day by downloading PollEverywhere and started a survey on the iPad to test how it would work as a survey tool until I get more development time around a native solution. This web-based survey tool is usually relegated to the…
An Apple A Day – Day 12
Day 12! More Apps! Things are getting easier to use and I am getting used to using them. There really is nothing new to report other than I downloaded a few new apps! Oh, and I also tried out a new complication on the Apple Watch. I wonder who came up with the name “complication” and what…

An Apple A Day – Day 9
Day 9 brought forth new and exciting ways to use my devices. It seems there is almost no end to the things you can do and do them with ease with these products. Today I decided to add some new apps to the stable, starting with Microsoft Azure app. iPad & Microsoft Azure I deal…
An Apple A Day – Day 8
So here we are 8 Days and Counting! I am still loving it but there are few things here and there that I’ve come across that have caused me a little annoyance. iPad & GoToMeeting: Today I tried out GoToMeeting for the first time and this required a few steps to be completed if you…
An Apple A Day – Day 7
Here we are a week in and today was a busy day filled with meetings and calls. Luckily I had my iPad Pro at the ready. I started off a little rocky as the wifi in the office is super unreliable and the staff wifi is super slow. But, once I got connected to the…
An Apple A Day – Day 6
Another Day, Another Dollar So, here’s a breakdown of my day. It’s my first full day in the workforce with my new devices. Will it measure up to a laptop or will it be a lapflop? First thing this morning, it was a painful setup for email because this client uses SecureMail vs. regular Outlook email,…
