And I complain about web design. I do that for free, though, no matter the scope.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Always Anti-fascist!
my attendant-services agency has an atrocious website. But they are full of cheapskates and crazy people so there is no web designer I know I'd inflict them on. But it is seriously green like bile.

Can we talk contact management?
I mean really, I am adrift.
I have Constant Contact...then an excel spreadsheet...and piles of cards and scraps to capture...Onebox, facebook, linked in, twitter, etc. lists.
I haz a frustrated.
It seems every list is different and has a different purpose.
Is there an easier, more efficient way to keep contacts updated across platforms?
I don't currently use Outlook. Rather, Thunderbird on Mac.
I'm getting ready to announce a big thing and want to have a clean, updated list before launching. There will be bounces because I haven't sent a CC campaign out in more than a year...and my do no mail list is not fully integrated into my excel list.
Argh. I'm feeling tragically incapable.
Does anyone feel in control of their data?

I cross posted this in tech bug since it's also a business question, I thought is ask here:
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.

I don't have an answer for printing, but I can't recommend the app TurboScan enough. You just take pictures of each page with your phone and it converts them to full resolution PDFs. I use it all the time.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
I am not a super heavy printer user, but I liked the OfficeJet 8600 Pro I purchased for my office that I bought one for home, too. AirPrint, duplex printing, legal size flatbed for scanning, remote printing available... So far has worked fine with my iPad and Mac.

Pix, does the picture look like a scanned image? I've tried similar ones but they never look quite flat.
And I guess I should have said more specifically, I need something I can use while driving, so small and preferably with a battery or something like that.

I feel like lifehacker went over this at one point? There was something similar to neat receipts, only for things bigger than receipts.

I'll take a look. I looked at the neat receipt one but I couldn't telling it would work for mostly dicuments

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I think the Neat would work for that side of things. Mine is mostly used for documents. It's the biggie, not portable, but I still took it on the road with me this summer and it was worth it.
For printing on the road I use a small Canon, but none of those are in-car, battery operated type deals. You could invest in a power converter so you could plug in regular devices. My Pilot has an AC jack built in.
I mostly have machinery I can set up when I get where I'm going, on a hotel desk or in my mom's guest bedroom or wherever. This summer I carried a printer, the NeatDesk, and my remote check deposit scanner and I was so much happier a camper than before.
And then the tour RV caught fire and I had to abandon all that stuff. But it was super nice while I had it.
