Dropbox OR External hard drives are now “a thing of the past”

If we’ve talked computers vis-à-vis in the past, you’ve probably heard my spiel on investing in an external hard-drive, which is a fantastic way to keep a backup of all your documents and photos at least once. Okay, you’ve probably heard my rant on backing up your files on more occasions than I’d like to admit, but […]

Android Tablet or HP ENVY Spectre XT Laptop?

While preparing for a couple of blogging conferences coming up all in one weekend (this weekend, eek!), I’ve been trying to determine whether I should bring a tablet or a laptop with me to keep up with any discussion notes.  I brought my tablet to last year’s conferences and my inlaw’s netbook to BlogHer ’12 […]

It’s suggestions include: “Guardianship”, “Balderdash” (*snort* Really??) and Karanganda (Whut?). But this post isn’t about spell check, it’s about curvy plus-sized clothing […]
