All is well that ends in pizza.

Ah, well, then I switch my statement to "unintended result"

heh.

The Qwerty store was presented as fact several times in typing classes and graphic arts up through my degree.

The Internet is good at messing with the status quo.

Trust my rage

Has anyone used the Moves app? I like it for tracking my exercise and I also think it's really cool to track where I've been. But it also creeps me out that anyone who picks up my phone (which does have an access code) can see everywhere I've been and for how long. I'm normally not unusually concerned about privacy but for some reason, this has me wondering who could do what with the info.

It sort of reminds me of Find my friends which I never used because it was also too creepy.

I'm thinking a wireless touchpad might be easier on my wrist than a mouse, but a decent sized one not the size built into laptops. PC windows 7. Thinking of the logitech wireless USB, but it seems to have a few flaws. Don't know if there is something better quality that will work off a Win7 Pc - with only USB2 ports. But does have bluetooth.

A lot of people seem to like the apple magic trackpad. They say it works fine on a pc, other than needing to reboot it if you stop using it for a while. Since it has an off switch and comes on instantly that seems to be no big deal.

Typo, I had some severe RSI pain and went through several options before I found the answer for me [link]

I played with an ipad and the touch screen left me absolutely pain free. And it is not the keyboard. I can type for hours and be pain free. Using thm mouse is what hurts. I'm pretty sure that with my particular RSI (caused by my upper discs) that a tocuhpad will work.

I love Moves! And my phone has no security at all...I keep thinking I should fix that but then my lockscreen app (Cover) wouldn't work.

Argh - any Android peeps use CameraZoomFX? I accidentally reset the default save folder to the CameraZoom folder instead of just Photos and now I have about 15 pictures that won't auto-backup because they're in the wrong place.

I've switched the default save folder back now, but how do I move those 15 photos to the right folder for G+ to recognize and upload them?

[edit: nevermind, got it! I was looking for "Files" but app is called "My Files"]

Has anyone here had any good experiences with mobile printing/scanning?

I just bought a mobile hotspot to do work on the go, mostly in my car, but I need a printer and scanner that work well with my iPhone and Mac. I've been reading reviews but they seem all over the place. I guess I'd prefer 1 device but I'd be happy with two if they work well.
