Tale of the Tooth
Thursday, 22 April 2010 12:00 A GMT-05

I love my Ipod Touch.I have hundreds of photos, thousands of songs, full length movies, tv shows and applications on it. One thing that has frustrated me is that unlike the Iphone the Touch has no camera or microphone. I carry a camera (pl
Twitter, Facebook and Social Networking
Monday, 19 October 2009 12:00 A GMT-05
I've given up on Twitter. I found the concept interesting but the spammers got involved and would get ten new followers a day that were just porn sites. I stopped posting there but still use it to keep track of interesting people like

Wednesday, 18 March 2009 12:00 A GMT-05
I play a lot of poker. When I play with friends we often need a real poker application like Tim's Tourney Timer . The timer keeps track of blinds and breaks. It does everything I need.
Videora for the Ipod Touch
Tuesday, 17 March 2009 12:00 A GMT-05
When I first got the Ipod Touch I put photographs and music on it. I wanted to do more but couldn't find an easy way to do some of it. Movies were a bit frustrating as you had to convert and transfer them from the dvd. Then I fo

One of the things that has kept me busy is organizing photographs. Since I am the one doing genealogy and family history I have inherited boxes upon boxes of photographs. I've decided that it really isn't fair that I keep them to
