Meeting for a computer group at an Irish pub is a great idea… Unless you want to hear. The over all noise in the pub wouldn’t be bad for all speakers, but some of the presenters were not loud enough, and many of the attendees could not hear. The topics are office in the cloud. […]

FaceFilter Pro 3.0 – Review
While at MacWorld/iWorld in April, I had the opportunity to catch up with the team at Reallusion. They were showing their new FaceFilter 3.0 for Mac. The program allows us average humans to do a lot of the same touchups on portraits that a PhotoShop expert would spend hours doing. To say it is […]
Review – Milk 2 (Desktop Tumblr)
A few weeks back at MacWorld/iWorld I had the pleasure of meeting Diego, the developer for the Desktop Tumblr app called Milk 2. He was showcasing his app in App developer space, and was having pretty good traffic. We talked for a bit, and he indicated the app should be released in the App Store […]
Five days with Google Glass
As I mentioned in my last post, my Google glass arrived on Monday and I ran into a few problems to start with. I don’t want to color the experience with those day one battery problems, so I decided to wait until today to provide a more detailed description of my experience so far. I’ve […]
Early early impressions of google glass
I received my google glass order yesterday and was excited to open the box. When it tried to start it up, it appeared that the battery was in a state of deep discharge. After two calls to tech support, I was able to get it to charge and right before I went to bed, it […]

ReKoMe! A Tag Your Photos Automatically
One of the booths I didn’t get to see at MacWorld/iWorld is the app ReKoMe. I was watching the videos that Chuck Joiner did over at MacVoices, and realized I should have made time to see them. I decided that I would download the Beta and test it out today. Overall this is a pretty […]
Impressions of MacWorld 2014
As you’ve seen on my last few posts, I haver gotten back from my yearly geek week vacation at MacWorld. It was great to hang out with friends, talk tech, drink a few beers, and see what new gadgets are coming out. Overall, I enjoyed myself this year, but the sessions have become less content […]
Day Three at MacWorld/iWorld 2014
And so it all ends so quickly – Thank you MacWorld for another great week of geeking out! Let’s quickly go thru the sessions I saw thru and then talk about the cool Apps and App Developers I got to talk to this week. I got to attend three sessions. The first was by Chuck […]
Day two of MacWorld/iWorld 2014
Wow.. what a busy day, and yes, I picked up a toy today. The Bass Egg was a kickstarted last year, and after hearing it today and doing a few tests (like placing it on my head), I was amazed and had to buy it. I am listening to a podcast on it right now, […]
