I always receive emails from Android users asking what apps I like to run on my phone and tablet. I always have to insert when I mention phones that I work for NTELOS Wireless, so there you go. Anyway, I thought instead of writing each person individually for a while I would tell you all…
I receive questions similar to the one I got from Donna recently. It involves something that sounds quite important in picking an e-book reader so let’s take a look and see. I own a Toshiba Thrive which is not actually an e-reader but I can also read books on it, so it will qualify. My…
Thanks for your emails this week about all of the Google search tips from last week. Since I was asked to give out some more I guess this is part deux. When I was a lad in school (way back in the last century) I would have been so happy to have been able to…

When I do talks and meetings with people who read this column around the area, there is a question I get most every time. That question is, "Where do you get ideas for the columns?" That is a great question and there are several answers to it. My favorite place is from emails my readers…
Over five years ago I wrote an article that told us about how Google had just bought up another small company. That company was found on the web at grandcentral.com and it was evidently called Grand Central. As the years went on I continued using the program with its new Google branding and it worked…
A few weeks ago I said that, "Google is just a great source of interesting, informative and OK, just plain fun applications you can get for free…at least the large percentage are free." Due to a large amount of email regarding Google I figured it is time to get onboard the Google train again. It…
