How to manage Google+ pages and profiles in the iOS app.
Google rolled out the ability to manage pages in the Google+ app quite a while ago, but the user experience is so bad that it took me quite a while to figure out how to do it. Once I figured it out though, I also figured out how to mange other Google+ profiles. To manage […]
Why is Google Hangouts So Bad?
Google is well-known for their ability to create great products. I don’t think I could live without Gmail, Google Analytics is fantastic too, and what would we do without search?! However, every now and then some of their products fail. Google Wave and Buzz to name a few. These fortunately were new products that, when […]
Review: The Automatic Link – Smart Driving Assistant
I’ve had my Automatic Link for a few months now and I’m very happy with my purchase. It’s easy to install and just works. Setup First, just plug it in. That was the step I was most worried about as I hadn’t ever interacted with the OBD-II port and I’m not to mechanically gifted. However, […]

Mayday. Mayday. Mavericks is panicking and restarting. Time Machine to the rescue.
I was all excited to install Mavericks, but sadly, it didn’t go well. Mavericks would kernel panic after a few minutes and then it’d restart the machine. The only way I could get the machine to work was to boot into safe mode. While in Safe Mode, I was able to use the machine and look […]
