I’m an iPad enthusiast. I’m a Kindle enthusiast. I’m an iPhone enthusiast. I’m also enthusiastic about apps and ebooks. I enjoy seeking out new things and sharing what I’ve learned so a blog is the perfect way to do all that. A place to contain my bubbling enthusiasm and a place to share.
I’m not a tech wizard. Just an ordinary person who gets great enjoyment from today’s incredible technology. People may chuckle about Atari 2600, but even that was astounding coming on the heels of it’s predecessor, Pong.
I bubbled, then, too. If there had been blogs in those Pong days, I would have posted with glee and delight about the little black-and-white pixel that you could bounce across your television screen.
FYI: Pong. Was. Awesome. (really)

/ July 18, 2012Saw your goodreads widget. Looks like you might like some of the same types of books. I don’t understand why the widget doesn’t take you to the displayed goodreads page, though. Do you? So I don’t know your name. Did I miss it on the blog? Well, anyway, if you’d like another reading buddy on GR, look me up.
sharechair
/ July 18, 2012Although I faithfully record my books on Goodreads, I haven’t been active, there. Not even sure if I have a page

/ August 17, 2012I don’t know much about all this fancy stuff. But I love learning a little bit about new things. Then I can choose to learn deeper if think I would enjoy. I have found so many things that I originally said…….I don’t think this is for me. And WOW I found it really was for me. lol
sharechair

Howard Peacock
/ August 25, 2012Good Morning..!! I have now spent the last two hours looking around and reading your blog!! Have to say that your direction (for the blog..) is a unique one and very inspiring. While I have no trouble (in general..!!) working through the techno stuff, I am very pleased to meet someone who takes the time to review and post on techie new things. I will have to keep reading your posts, I guess, just to stay current on “what’s new.”!!! Two hours here….and the rest of my blog respondents still to go….OMG, my head hurts. Help me!! Please!!! I am reading and I can’t get up….
sharechair
/ August 25, 2012Ha ha! Love your sense of humor! And I feel your pain. I spent so much time on the computer this morning clearing up an erroneous post that my mailbox is now overflowing with unread notifications, but my seat can no longer sit. “I am reading and I can’t get up” fits me to a “t” !!
