Does anyone use Pages for the iPad? What do you think of it?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have it, I haven't used it much. I've really only used it for minor tweaking of existing documents, and it's fine for that.

I don't love the mechanics of syncing through the iCloud - actually syncing between iPad and iPhone is pretty okay, but going to and from the laptop is clunky. If I was mostly working on the iPad it might be better, actually.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I need help coming up with a name for my photo Tumblr.

Vortex,

let me ask you a question, what is your intent for using Pages?

Illicit? I kid. But what kinds of things do you want to do.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Scola, I have no suggestions (Although I like the "here, have some photos" subtitle), but I wanted to share my "damn, but he can take photos" reaction.

Tom, how about Beautiful New York (and elsewhere)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

"Don't Blink"

Ooh. I like that.

PORN! Oh, wait . . .

I want some sort of word processing program and Pages works with iCloud, so I can work on my PC and the iPad. There are probably other programs that do this as well, no?

Coding and Sleeping

My wife's computer died yesterday and we replaced it immediately last night (a $500 Lenovo with an i5 processor and 4GB of RAM expandable to 8GB which I'll be doing once I know if its 4GB is 2GB x 2 or 4GB x 1).

I have to say I really appreciate how easy it is to restore Firefox and Thunderbird to be exactly the same as it was on the old computer. Nice job, Mozilla, nice job.
