A plethora of note-taking apps
Despite my love of writing things down in lovely notebooks, I'm also a fan of electronic notes. This is due to a combination of fear that I'll lose important things written on paper and a (perceived) need to have access to anything I've ever written at any time or in any location. Judge me. But keeping ...
Moleskine Evernote notebooks: Take a photo – it’ll last longer!
Ah. I've never had the opportunity to use this particular sarcastic comeback in real life, but it occurred to me this was what motivated me to trial Moleskine's Evernote notebook: the ability to accurately record your notes from the page to the digital. Because they'll last longer. Now, I'm pretty confident you don't absolutely need to ...
My top posts of 2016
It's been a busy year on the blogging front. I reached by 1,000th post and built a better habit of regular posts. Some of which were surprisingly popular with those of you with enough time on your hands to come visit. I had a quick look at my stats and the following posts are (in ...
Torn between iOS and Android? Kind of.
The experiment isn't over! Some of you may remember I got myself all Androided-up a few months back. I bought a Nexus 6P and fell in love with it and its OS, Android. I kept my iPhone and Apple Watch in a drawer and lived a Google-focused existence. Since then, I've moved between the two ...
A mini return
Since I got my iPad Pro 9.7", my iPad Mini3 has been relatively unused. As in, completely unused. The Pro has replaced it in all things, to the point where when I picked it up yesterday, the little red notification illustrating app updates from the App Store was in triple figures. A sure sign that I ...
What counts as a podcast?
You can look at all the hi-tech recording equipment you like, but if you can't bear the sound of your own voice, it's not an idea to try to make a podcast. Right? Well, I put my sandwich down over lunch and spoke a few words into my iPhone to test a theory. The blather ...
Is everyone leaving Evernote?
Is everyone leaving Evernote? Seriously. I have to ask. I've noticed a slightly disturbing trend in the tech news: the growing number of destinations available for exported Evernote content. First, there was Apple - you can import Evernote content into the Apple Notes app. Next came Microsoft, with a (PC-only) importer for their OneNote app. And this ...
Back in the OmniFocus club
It's been a while now, but I've finally moved on from ToDoist and gone back to using OmniFocus. Well, I say 'gone back', but the app has evolved so much since I last used it, it's almost unrecognisable. My move from ToDoist isn't a slight against that app - I still stand by everything I've ...
iPadding around…
I got myself a 128GB iPad Air 2 with sim last weekend and (Vodafone nonsense aside... that deserves a whole post of its own) took it on a week-long business trip. Paired with a Logitech magnetic clip-on keyboard, it was an excellent laptop replacement. When standing up running workshops, it was my reference notebook, using ...
