One of our most popular articles is reviewing the Apple TV, but that’s fairly old news now and I was getting tired of constantly updating the page. Rather than reviewing the new Apple TV (1080p) and giving it the thumbs up, I decided it would be more beneficial to outline the key features in detail. [...]
We invite you to read these tips we’ve learned while enjoying Instagram. Instagram is the one social network that I’ve personally become addicted to. 1. Share your photos on other social networks. These include Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, Tumblr, Flickr , and Posterous. If you don’t have accounts for those social networks, start one up today. [...]
About a month ago, I started playing Instagram, a photo sharing network. Our company participates in many social networks, Instagram being one of the latest and greatest. Actually, I’ve enjoyed Instagram more than almost any other social network. It’s easy, I meet new people, enjoy dabbling with filters and enjoy amazing photography (iPhoneography) from various [...]

When I first started my business, I depended on an accountant to handle payroll and associated taxes, but this became too expensive. No disrespect to my accountant, but he was raping my checking account for the services rendered and I eventually moved to a payroll service offered through my bank. I had tried signing up [...]
After some of the damning articles we’ve wrote, its encouraging to see Kodak finally offering some social and mobile solutions. I just wonder if its too little too late.

Coming to us on the Iphone 4S, Cards is an iOS version of the greeting card-maker built-in to iPhoto, but with a twist — instead of printing and shipping cards to the user, who then has to buy stamps, address and mail the cards — Apple takes care of printing, mailing, and postage and sends [...]
I’m just going to come out and say it. I hate business cards. Considering, I own a print company, that’s a bold statement. I despise carrying them, receiving them and trying to organize them. At our offices, we do offer generic cards since some customers expect them, but I’d love to get rid of them [...]
How many of you printers and designers are playing Fantasy Football? Last year was actually the first time I ever played, and at age 36 I’m hooked. Last year was the first for almost our entire league so we avoided the draft and used the default ESPN settings. That left little strategy to the game. [...]
One of the largest gripes with developers, publishers and designers concerning the Apple’s App Store is the 30% cut Apple demands from all app and in-app purchases. Is it fair? Is it inhibiting innovation? Is it evil? First, for all of you who are unfamiliar with the situation. Basically, every app you purchase, Apple gets [...]
I’m very fond of the Kindle app and use it across many devices (iphone, ipod, ipad and droid), so any news on it is important. Apparently, Apple infringes a 30% fee for any purchases made through an in-app web store. Most companies have simply removed sign-up forms and e-commerce from the Apple apps (which seems [...]
GGTracker is a Trojan (a malicious program concealed within otherwise harmless software). Its creators lure unsuspecting Android users via ads that appear in other Android apps. So far, those ads have been touting free apps for optimizing your phone battery or adult content. But that could easily change, so consider any in-app ad for a [...]
As printers, we should stay on top of photo-sharing apps as the movement is changing how photographers (professional and less adept) are interacting with the world and how they share their images. Many new print companies are taking advantage of the photo-sharing movement by building apps for the printing side. Below are a few popular [...]

Many of us have our quick online sources for news, but the Ipad App, Zite, has really improved my online reading. I was visiting Mashable, CNN, TechCrunch and many other sources every single day, but no more! A few weeks ago, I downloaded Zite unsure what I’d get. Immediately, I was impressed how elegant and [...]
