I’ve already covered most of the aspects of my own personal network (i.e. an iPhone, an iPad, and a NetBook). I have been using these three devices for three distinctly different roles, but there is a comparable need to develop as much overlap as possible, if only to make this little network as robust as [...]


IPad use amongst the new users…

Since I got my iPad, I have wondered how others use theirs. This piece of technology has been out in the marketplace long enough that there should be some trends worth watching to get a sense of where this tool is pulling or pushing people.  


Prezi for iPad

January 19, 2011

In business, college, and when teaching, presentation managers are useful (usually overused tools). I have been subjected to innumerable boring, time wasting Microsoft PowerPoint presentations for years. When I found out about Prezi a few years ago I was sold. The new addition of a free iPad app for Prezi now makes the iPad a [...]


social networking apps for the iPad…

One of the subtle shortcomings of the iPad app store is that it presents all of the apps you might be interested in installing is such a random manner (within some category guidelines) that it makes getting some systematic implementations of apps more difficult that it should be. I intend to start presenting suites of [...]

If you have read any of my posts in the last several months, you might know that I use my iPad as my sole guitar rig. I have several apps I have been testing out (iShred, Peavey’s AmpKit, Amplitube, and a couple other virtual guitar amp/virtual guitar pedalboard apps). So far I have found most [...]


iPad video apps

One of the most powerful, and least advertised tools for the iPad is that (1) you can stream movies from your Mac or PC (within the same WiFi environment), and (2) it is possible to play video formats beyond what Apple allows for. Apple’s video app, and its connection to the iTunes store are worth [...]

There are a growing number of handwriting apps for the iPad, I picked Penultimate mostly because it is only $0.99, and it has gotten some pretty good reviews. The iPad can occasionally be an infuriating tool, in that the ‘keyboard’ is not as suited for real typing as you might want. The idea of using [...]


Thought controlled iPad

In the coverage of the 2011 CES (i.e. the International Consumer Electronics Show) which has been filling up the techno blogs this week, I saw what, at first, appeared to me a fascinating premise. I saw literally 50 online links to what is purported to be a mind control interface for an iPad. As with [...]


Pulse News and Flipboard

January 6, 2011

Flipboard came out early last summer, and has become Apple’s iPad app of the year. Considering the hoopla surrounding the iPad and huge number of apps it has in the App store, this is quite an honor. The idea behind what Flipboard originally was to create a ‘magazine’ format to look over your own Facebook [...]


so, you got an iPad for Christmas…

January 3, 2011

First off, I saw an article on Mashable.com (IPads Dominate Holiday Gifts in Mashable Poll), and wondered about how many people actually got (or received) an iPad for Christmas. I decided that it would be a good thing to provide a collated list of the plethora of help articles, lists of apps to get first, [...]
