Cool New Way to Use the Best Word Processor

I love Google Docs. I live by Google Docs. I can't believe I ever lived with anything else. It strikes just the right balance between simplicity and power. It's made for writers like me who constantly need to send out documents for edits and comments without causing a...

Ting Vs Charge for Cell Service

I like Ting a lot. The pricing model is well conceived, and the resultant costs are low. The customer service is fantastic. The website and mobile apps function flawlessly. I never get unexpected charges. Laura and I have been on it for three years, and our average...

Biblical Worldview: Creation, Fall, Redemption now has a promo page on bjupress.com. If you haven't yet purchased a copy, you will want to do so now that there is a promo page. Bryan Smith, the presenter on the video there, is the one whose vision I was trying to live...

How to Listen to YouTube Lectures as Podcasts

Update: I have a massively revised version of this set of tips here. I am all the time seeing YouTube lectures I want to listen to—that's right, listen to, not watch. I just can't watch a YouTube lecture. I'm distracted by all the other things I need to do on my...

Kindle Aping Oyster?

Wow! This could be extremely cool—Amazon opening a subscription service like Oyster Books. Or, like Oyster, it could be extremely cool and ultimately not conducive to my personal and financial purposes. I really liked Oyster and signed up immediately, but I let my...

Droplr Awesome

I love Droplr, and over the last six months I have used it nearly 800 times. It's one of the very few online services that I pay actual money for (I used to pay for LastPass, but I switched to 1Password, which is slightly better for my needs and has a one-time fee)....
