There are several things I have written about through the years which I get questioned about regularly. I thought today we would look at a few that have evolved into something more as well as some that have vanished from the e-landscape. One of them was a site with some fun, soothing sounds. It is…
Over the years I have put age appropriate apps on my Android tablet for my grandkids to play. Now, while I am a pretty good grandpa, I do not like letting a small child run around the house swinging the devices around their heads and throwing them to each other. So at a young age…
