Following the past two weeks’ columns, I’ve received many responses. So, I thought I would continue the series addressing common suggestions I offer regarding questions I frequently receive. For instance, I am often asked, “Which is the best e-reader app?” I use Android tablets and phones, but my suggestion holds true for most all systems….
I had a little problem a few weeks ago. It was nothing earth shattering, no trauma, not a disturbance in the force, only a hassle with an Android app I purchased. Now the real killer…it was all my fault. I have used a free application on my Android phones/tablets for a long time. However, being…

In a column last year, I mentioned in passing an application that has come to my attention (through my own research and a few emails from readers).
