Location based reminders never worked for me. Either it would never give the alert once I was at the set location or it would go off after a extremely long delay. Read more

I agree with you. While I've never used a Doxie, a scanner with a tray to load multiple pages is the only way to go. A smartphone camera is only good to take low quality scans when you're in a pinch, but I always beeline for a traditional scanner with a tray whenever I can. Quality just cannot be beat. If you're… Read more

I have the opposite problem. The slat is fine, but the hook is broken. Any way to MacGyver that? Read more

I have never paid for a SMS plan because I have been using Google Voice for SMS for nearly four years now. There are two wonderful jailbreak tweaks that integrates Google Voice into the Phone and SMS apps on the iPhone so that any native calls and SMS outbound will be routed through Google Voice.

How do you plan on using your iPhone as a free hotspot? I dabbled in TetherMe on my iPhone 3G years ago, but that was before AT&T started cracking down. Read more

Be wary of FreedomPop. I got it a few months ago and while it works sporadically well due to spotty coverage, I noticed a clause that said your deposit is not refundable after the first year because they assume you want to keep the device. Therefore, the service is not completely free. Read more

Another vote for MapQuest. I've been doing some traveling lately across the country and it's worked decently well in cities of all sizes (Pittsburgh, Columbus, Houston, etc.) as well as in the middle of nowhere between cities. Read more

Hear hear! I believe the Android version of Astrid supports this, but I'm an all Apple mobile products person. I contacted them directly about this and they gave me an unsatisfactory response. Read more

I turned on 2 step verification on Dropbox and just tried to connect Goodreader to Dropbox on my iPad. Once I entered my Dropbox password, it prompted me for the 6 digit two-step verification code. Works fine. Read more

Google Calendar shouldn't be disturbed by 2 step. Try pointing your iPhone to m.google.com/sync and adjusting the calendar settings there. Read more

That's what Google said about developing for iOS. Read more

No, they don't. I generated a share link and opened it with a different browsing session that's not logged into Dropbox. I was able to access the shared files. Read more

I MacGyver'ed this by wrapping the mentioned section of the glasses with rubber bands...same principle, but much more noticeable. Read more

My face is unusually larger than most people's. I have seen many licensed opticians who give me their widest frames. Still haven't found on that's stays on my face. Read more

Any way for me to set up a group text but somehow be able to moderate it? Email groups can be moderated so that any emails going out to the email list have to be approved before being sent out. Is there anything similar for SMS? Read more

There has been anecdotal evidence and hearsay that AT&T customer service represenatives have tried to claim that even Netflix is considered "tethering." Read more

Not exactly the most legitimate looking website. The website doesn't really go into detail how "encrypt" works. I'll pass. Read more

Not only impress them, but also convert them. I have had a 21 inch external monitor hooked up to my laptop in my room for years. Initially, my friends thought I was a weird computer nerd for needing so much virtual real estate. Only when I let them used my computer for their work did they realize that it is a… Read more
