New Mobile Broadband!
So, for various reasons I won’t bother listing, I decided it was high time to get a mobile broadband card and service. I’d been thinking about it for quite some time, but the extra monthly expense has kept me merely thinking about it. So yesterday, I was reading Pogue’s Posts and David Pogue reviewed the Sierra/Sprint Wireless Compass 597. I usually read his posts the day they come out, but this was from last month. Not sure how I missed it the first time, but I read it at just the right moment. At lunch today, I went to a local Sprint store and signed up. I’m posting this using my new connection. As you can see, it’s not super duper fast, though I was running a few things at the same time during the connection test - including Google Earth - so I’m not being fair. Either way, I’m already so excited about my new found freedom! And I can hardly wait to answer my 8 year old’s at least weekly question, “Do we have Internet in the car?” She’s going to be thrilled to get onto Webkinz on her way to Nana’s house! And even more thrilled to be AT Nana’s house with access to Webkinz! Nana and Papa don’t even have a computer!
Episode 40–enhanced and fortified with 18 essential vitamins and minerals (oh, and images and links too)
Err…so we’re posting this after episode 40.5, but you know it makes sense in the alternate universe. This podcast is a continuation of our reflection from TCEA 2008. Anna enhanced this podcast with images and links from TCEA–remember that you can also go to Hitchhikr and look up TCEA to see what others have posted.
We don’t have many links, but here’s a couple:
- David Pogue - We heart David! Fantastic presentation at Past Presidents’ Luncheon.
- Marco Torres - Our friend and fellow ADE - did a fabulous job at the closing keynote–I’m still mulling over and sharing his wisdom!
- Cover It Live - live blogging from any event–very, very cool. See our blog for examples of this.
- Who Is Sick - “flumappr” of sorts–see who’s sick and where (based on user input)
And we need your feedback! Call us at 206-350-7814 to let us know about your favorite part of TCEA, what you learned, a memorable moment–whatever you want to share. We’ll include it on an upcoming episode
