(This is the fourth post in a series.)
He has kept things running at his current job using minimum resources, lots of patience, and an interesting variation of stubborn loyalty. When others would have bailed, he stuck with it to see his plans change and go to fruition. He has been in charge of websites, networks, podcasting, social network monitoring and information dissemination, among other things.
He has two tablets (three if you count his Nook Color), one for work and one that is his personal. This post deals with his work tablet, the iPad 2 (WiFi).
- Tablet: iPad 2
- Alerts: no audible
- On the main screen: Nearly full of icons, unlike the Android tablets, the iPad puts all icons on the screens. Yes, you can put them in folders, but there is no way to “hide” them without deleting them.
- Case: It is one that a former co-worker bought and left for someone else to use. It folds back to lay flat and folds so that you can prop it up on your desk.
- Background: I am not sure what the character is called, but it looks like a robot made out of cardboard boxes, standing in the street just after a shower of rain.
- Last email: A somewhat lengthy email with several metaphors in it talking about how website traffic should have been aimed at one goal not to several. About how posting to Twitter and Facebook can drive people to the site rather than from the website to Facebook and Twitter. And how with planning ahead that the most pain-in-the-neck posting tasks can be done.
- The last app I used: App store, to update ten apps that haven’t been updated in some time.
- Currently obsessed with: Not sure I am obsessed with any app on the iPad 2. I use Evernote and Chrome browser the most.
- Last download: Presence so that I could test the camera streaming functionality of the app (using iPhone as the transmitter).
- Most surprising app on the home screen: Paper by FiftyThree. I’ll just let you read what it is about. I use it for scribbling drawings. My best one so far is an image of a beach.
A sketch was done using the Paper app by FiftyThree – http://www.fiftythree.com/paper - Text or call: Neither.
- Remaining battery: 51%. I haven’t charged it for several days, and it has been on standby.
