What does a modern day mobile professional need to carry on a daily basis?
What does a modern day mobile professional need to carry on a daily basis?
Back in the day you had your cell phone (brick size), palm pilot, a notebook that weighed 10 lbs not including the power supply, a host of cables to connect to different ports and a projector in its own suitcase. That was just for starters. When flying back in the late 90s and early 2000s.
Today, an iphone with a projector weighing 3 lbs blows away all of the above hardware and costs a fraction.
There are a lot of choices based on the profession so if you have a question or need some help drop me a line. You can also follow me on twitter @SFWEBGURU

IPv6 is coming... what do you do?
IPv6 is coming... what do you do?
Nothing, unless you are connected to the backbone of the Internet. Let's put it this way, in order to have a connected device you need an address, IPv6 is the rewrite to extend the Internet, well for a long time.
Long overdue and welcomed by all of the big boys on the block because we were past critical patching our way along.
Cheers

Confirmation | What is the Value of Social Media? How National Geographic sold 2,500 Subscriptions in One Day | Sergio Balegno | National Geographic
Adobe is the leader in on and offline software. I use their Master Suite of Software products for web, video, audio, and pretty much everything else. These guys are heavy into social media. Great presentation.

Online Etiquette - Where are your manners?
Online Etiquette - Where are your manners?
Ok, everyone has had enough time to get up to speed with etiquette so get to it.
Put away your capital letters and stop bolding words in your emails we get it. Enough of the strange font sizes and colors we know you have the capability in outlook, it doesn't mean you use it. With great powers comes great responsibility.
Remember once you post something out there on the Web on a blog, social network or website it may very well be attached to you forever... so think twice.
Someone out there better start teaching etiquette for Web 2.0 users because employers and businesses are watching..

The New Improved ipad3, no not really...
The New Improved ipad3, no not really...
The rumors are flying around about the new ipad 3 but what could they do to improve on the current platform?
Some of the new features that are being thrown around are a screen that is equal to the iPhone 4S which is super sharp Retina Display which be a great improvement.
Also the standard updates are a faster processer and must MORE of everything which equals to a larger batter. The current ipad is super slim so we might seen the ole boy gaining some weight in favor of some beefer features.
Personally, I would be fine with a bit heavier unit if it was faster, had a better display and more memory and drive space.

Why have I been using a tablet pc for over 6 years?
Why have I been using a tablet pc for over 6 years?
Strange, I see articles pitching tablet pcs for business users stretching to add value. When in fact there are so hundreds of reasons to utilize a tablet for day to day work.
For instance: Real Estate, is a business where the tablet computer is specially suited when used properly. We have designed, installed and trained agents on how to utilize a tablet in day to day operations while working with a client. I personally recommend the HP Slate 500 Tablet PC Atom Z540 1.86GHz 64GB SSD 2GB 8.9" WSVGA Touchscreen BT Window 7 Professional 2x Webcams (COMMERCIAL FACTORY REFURBISHED)
listed at $599 if you are in the marketing today. This unit is $400 cheaper than my first tablet PC in 2005.
In the early days, when tablet pcs didn't have Verizon or AT&T broadband built in we opted for a HP Tablet that dueled as a laptop because it had a PC Card II slot for a Att broadband card the subsequently a Wimax Card.
This gave us the ability to drive around a city while been synced with our office paperwork, the MLS, our specialized client software and the Web. We were equipped with a wireless printer in the trunk and screens built into the headrests of our vehicle so when driving around the clients in the backseat can see what I was looking at real-time.
Sounds perfect right, so why do many agents opt for a smart phone or no computer when out with clients?

Buy a Smart TV or Not?
What do I do when faced with so many choices at the electronics store, buy a Smart TV or Not?
The bottom line is the price is so minimal today you should go for it. Samsung Smart TV is very well equiped to handle any basic task that you may have and if you are a bit of a techie it has some gadgets you must not go without.
Imagine toggling back and forth from the game to your stats on your 55" TV using a wireless keyboard and mouse, even go picture in picture.
With a pumped up DVR with 4 incoming feeds you can watch one and record three or watch a recorded show and record 4 channels... wonders never ceast to exist.
My recommendation is go for the Samsung Smart TV it has 4 HDMI inputs and every other input you can imagine.
Cheers
