People have been speculating Apple’s entry into the television set game for a long time, but Apple has yet to fulfill any of these prophecies.  Sure there’s the current AppleTV, a stand alone box used primarily for purchasing from iTunes and Netfilx, but people continually speculate that a TV set is the next step.

A recent article by Toronto Standard suggests that television set are not the ace up Apple’s sleeve and their argument is prettttty solid.

Just like paper but less dead trees….

I enjoyed these 7 tips from Mashable for travelling bloggers.  Really, they’re useful for more than just bloggers.  Great for short trips like a weekend away or escaping the snow all winter long in Oxnard. 

Having spent much time on the road, I can appreciate the value of being organized before you venture out and pre-scheduling things.  Twitter is great for connecting with people when a connection is limited.  

How many times have you read a blog post that started, “So I wrote this big long post and I lost it when the site /computer crashed so I’m just writing a short update…”.  Well if you first write up everything offline you not only save time on the internet (great when paying by the minute) but you also have a backup(s).  Also great for when you inevitably switch services.
