    offloading an apple watch

    I was so excited by the Apple watch commercial at the olympics that I jumped at the chance to buy one (refurbished) at zulily without realizing that it will ONLY work with an iPhone (not with my ipad or my ipod) so now I have a $300 Apple Watch Series 2 Nike version with 38mm sport band that I'd...

    Setting up a message board

    I need to set up a message board for a professional group of non profit directors that are all currently using a shitty facebook group. I used to have a Yuku board but it seems Yuku was absorbed by tapatalk, but I can't figure out a what replaced Yuku for the relatively inexpensive message board...

    The New "What Phone Should I Get" Thread

    My Samsung Galaxy 5 is on its last legs. And I am getting increasingly frustrated with TMobile's bizarre coverage where, in one of the most densely populated areas in the country, I can go miles with zero coverage. At least half of the one hour trip to Fredericksburg VA from Prince William...

    Macbook Pro flash card storage?

    I have a 13" MBP Retina (Spring 2015) and I'm contemplating getting one of those expansion card for my SD drive. The price between a Tardisk and one of the other companies (like Transcend Jetdrive Lite) is almost $300 so I am curious if anyone else uses one of these to double their storage...

    Macolytes Rejoice, and Advise!

    I really need to be able to edit some work related video and the pro i work with has suggested that for what I want to do, iMovie should be perfect (nothing terribly sophisticated, mostly just turning myself into an internet sensation, etc) so I have decided that since I haven't upgraded my...

    2015 Tour de France (with race day spoilers)

    Big crash today, already three riders abandoned. Lots of chatter from Mark Cavendish from yesterday--He really does need to learn to keep his mouth shut until his heart rate goes down, but it sure looked like he laid up in the last few seconds when Fabian C came screaming up the outside. I'm at...

    Managing a square store for donations

    I have a square store for my non profit and we only have donations up in the market. I would like to be able to remove from inventory items that are not timely (sponsorships for our bring spring event) so that when folks want to make a donation (like for #DoMore24 today) they only see the items...

    web-based email w/ specific server info

    I have a work study student who likes to use her own computer but doesn't have outlook or outlook express and I honestly don't know how to create a companyname.org account that she can access. She keeps saying "don't you have an outlook.com account?" and of course I don't think we do because the...

    Alternatives to Facebook

    I am becoming increasingly disillusioned with Facebook and the issues with privacy (I am set pretty private but it seems that if my friends comment on something, all of their friends see it, etc) and while it has served well to keep me in touch with people, and back in touch with people I've...

    I need to move beyond excel spread sheets for volunteer management. I am looking at a few different online services that allows volunteers to sign up for specific shifts on specific days, as well as to register for generic volunteer opportunities.

    simple project management software or tools?

    I work on one big project (for me, that is) at work and I feel that I could really use some project/event management tool to help me, and ensure that I'm not remembering at the last minute that I still need to get the fire marshal or health department out to the site in advance. Does anyone use...
