Google Now On Tap is the latest iteration of Google Now, Google’s search service on Android and iOS devices. It was mentioned as significant new feature when the latest version of Android was announced, Marshmallow 6.0. I have had it on my Nexus 9 for a few months already but it seemed like nothing more…

Amazon Fire TV Has A Lot To Offer
Amazon was kind enough to invite me to their Press Play to Party event that was hosted at E3. I really didn’t know much about the event or the Amazon Fire TV going into it, but I walked away extremely impressed with the device as a result of seeing it in action firsthand. I’m a…
Rick’s Sports Center: A Mammoth Treasure
My family just got back from another great camping trip in the Eastern Sierras. We love camping because it’s an escape from our constantly moving world. There’s only two ways to tell time for us, light and dark. As long as there is light we can fish, hike, and explore. As darkness fell it is…

Both are relatively simple to use and put you live with followers that are interested in what you’re seeing in real-time. I’m not sure I will be using both for long, because…
Make Manual Settings Work For You
That M on you camera or smartphone can be an intimidating option. Most of us never even bother to leave the auto mode and at the same time are wasting opportunities to take some experimental, if not beautiful shots. OK, I’ll admit it. I rarely touch the M, for manual, settings on my standard camera, …
Maximize Your Smartphone Photography
I love Instagram and Google+ because I love photography. I know I won’t be able to explore the whole world in my lifetime, but I love that others are willing to share their world with me through photos. I’ll openly admit that I do not think I’m a great photographer. I’ll also say that I take better pictures…
