I’m really enjoying my mobile toys lately. After being the wired dude back in Seattle with cell phones and radio devices hanging from my belt, I chose not to connect that way when I came to this valley. Our land line was just fine for everything…
I watched with envy as the smartphone/tablet evolution arrived and people were downloading apps. Here I am the old programmer guy writing code in PHP and jQuery thinking I was at the cutting edge, while other people were downloading apps!
There is no more envy in that regard. I now own a new Nexus 10 tablet and a Motorola Razr Maxx smartphone. I have apps now, I rule Android and I’m turning Steph on to the New World. I’m also moving my code brain in this new direction!
Transitioning to a small format is interesting. As I use my devices from the field (i.e. the seat of my bus while idle) I realize the limitations. Tonight I wrote a program that presents my favorite creations into little boxes that just fit my finger when I press on the screen. Here’s the link: www.busdriverjim.com/mobile Try it from your smartphone!
I am so glad you decided to get a tablet and a smart phone. I get to share your wonderful knowledge. :-) :-) You are awesome. You are really connected now!
I don’t have a smart phone only a cell phone . It takes pictures and texts but I don’t do those things. I don’t know why you back and forth on face book. But you do.
The fact that I back and forth on FaceBook is reflective of their messed up code. They keep changing things and making their site worse. Eventually they will crash and you will need something else… But, something else will be there, don’t worry!
You have it figuered out. That’s good.
