Android Tablet A guy recently bought me his Android tablet and he wanted me to download a few TV programs on it, like The Jefferson’s, Three’s Company and The Cosby Show. I found a few episodes on-line and plugged his tablet into my computer expecting to see the drive inside the tablet and his Micro […]
Yes! It is that time of year where you give and receive gifts. We all know the one person in the family who is the hardest to shop for… DAD. Since I’m Dad, I thought it would be great to write an article on the subject hoping this will help my kids to find that […]
Yes, it is finally that time of year again where we get to scare others and ourselves and not get in trouble for it. With my boys getting older it is more of a challenge to impress them with Halloween. If you remember, last year I wrote an article called 5 Ideas For Tech-ing Out Your […]
How Does Technology Play Out When Watching Football Games? My husband is one lucky guy. I love sports every bit as much as he does and like the same sports teams. I am elated that football season is now upon us. It doesn’t matter whether you are in attendance at the stadium or sitting in […]
What’s with the “Back to School” circulars? Scratching my head, wait isn’t it still summer? Our newspaper is getting heavier and heavier with inserts jam packed with sales circulars.

Our very own Dave’s Computer Tips (DCT) Contest Manager, Editor and Author, Jim Hillier, wrote an article back in March entitled, CDs, DVDs & Optical Drives Heading for Extinction? I’d like to tackle the topic but take a different approach. It would be really neat if you can add to my article. I am sure […]
The Question You ever look at everyday technology and say, “Hey! I bet this would be helpful in war!”? My wife says it is only me… 🙁 Let me explain how I got to this question. I have been reading about various conflicts and wars around the world. Not only that, I have also been reading up on […]
Is it worth the Price Tag to view 3D over 2D? I have only seen one movie at the theater in 3D. My niece insisted and took me to see Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland in 3D. My hubby and I have gone to the movie theater to see Avatar but he wouldn’t spring the extra […]
From Then To Now I have to admit that I have always been attracted to cameras and I have had quite a few over the years. Also, through the years I managed to evolve from a basic Brownie to those wonderful (at the time) throw-away cameras that you could buy, take photos, then mail the […]
Social Media These days, Social Media is what everyone is buzzing about. I enjoy the opportunity to reach out and talk to people that I have not seen in years and catch up on what is going on in their lives. I have encountered others with shared interests and developed an online bond with them. […]
Take a good look at this picture if you will and imagine that as your living room. Yeah, me too; I’m imagining it and my eyes hurt. Actually, Home Cinema for most of us mere mortals is a euphemism for a PC sitting under the telly (SMART TVs excepted of course), with a mouse and […]
