My late-2011 MacBook Pro has been good to me and served us well for years, but for work and editing videos it has it’s limitations. I’ve been using it with an external monitor for a second screen, but it was awkward and took up a lot of desk space. Video editing was ok, but could …
When I got an Apple Watch for my 30th birthday, I have to admit there was a huge amount of novelty value to the gift, and just plain geeky excitement of getting the latest gadget! I did genuinely want the watch, however, and for quite a few reasons. I’m happy to report that I am …
Any geeky apple fan will know that Apple are currently holding their 2014 Worldwide Developers Conference. It kicked off yesterday with their opening keynote, the highlight of the conference for those of us interested in the future of iOS – the operating system that iPhones & iPads run on.

Originally designed just for the Mac, the developer has now released a universal iOS app for 69p, which can be used on iPads, iPhones and iPod Touches. The Mac app is free! The basic …
…with my new iPhone! Yes, I know, that’s very pathetic. It is, after all, just a bit of technology. But oh what a wondrous device it is. I’ve been using an iPhone 3GS for over two years, and had a 3G one before that, so I’m not new to them in general… but the 4S is really …
With last night’s announcement from Apple, what else could this weeks Wednesday Wishlist be, really?! It doesn’t always have to be something just for Georgie (though I will let her play with it… safely in the Fisher Price case we plan to buy soon!) I watched the keynote video this morning (even though I read …
