23 Things: Number 2

Technology...

I am an Apple user. I love my mac. One of the reasons I love them so much is there are no decisions to be made. I want a tablet...I got the ipad. Once you step out of the apple realm you have about 30 different tablets to choose from and about 100 different operating systems. I wanted a smart phone. I have the iPhone. If you go the android route there's about 200 different choices to chose from. I needed a new computer. I bought the Mac Book Pro. Not very complicated. I didn't have to choose between an Hp or a Dell or ....Mac keeps things simple and I will hands down recommend them to anyone and everyone.

I also have a kindle. Prefer the kindle to any other device. I believe I can say that with some expertise because I am a librarian and I teach classes on such things. The only uncomplicated one out there is the Kindle paperwhite. Once you get into the tablets see above, I'm a mac user.

This being said I don't use them to keep track of my daily life. I don't e-mail from my phone or iPad, I don't input my calendar and since I don't use social media I have no use to tweet, update my facebook or check in on FourSquare. Since I have a kindle paperwhite I rarely use it to read. So why on earth do I have one you ask? I have no idea, but I love it and use it daily. The tips and tricks mentioned in this "23 Mobile Apps class" really didn't do much for me. Since I'm on it every day and I'm not afraid to explore and I troubleshoot for other people I had already figured out most of the tips mentioned. There were a few things mentioned that I attempted to figure out but couldn't. I couldn't figure out how to see my mobile app usage and I couldn't figure out how to take pictures in a panoramic view, but since I don't take pics with my devices I wasn't too concerned. The only thing I'm interested in is a place where I can delete all text messages at once and a place where i can get rid of the notification scroll bar thingy. Until someone tells me how to do that then I will keep regarding this as a complete waste of my time.
