10 paid iPhone apps on sale for free for a limited time

Posted on July 28, 2016 by SGVAUG BlogMaster

Zach Epstein, over on BGR, has a bad habit of posting lists of cool iPhone/iPad(/iPod Touch)(/Apple Watch) apps that are temporarily free.

Here’s the fine print:

These are paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available for free for a limited time by their developers. There is no way to tell how long they will be free. These sales could end an hour from now or a week from now – obviously, the only thing we can guarantee is that they were free at the time this post was written. If you click on a link and see a price listed next to an app instead of the word “get”, it is no longer free. The sale has ended. If you download the app, you will be charged.

Who are you and what do you do?

Posted on July 25, 2016 by SGVAUG BlogMaster

At The Sweet Setup:

Every week we try to post a new interview with someone about what software they use on their Mac, iPhone, or iPad. We do these interviews because not only are they fun, but a glimpse into what tools someone uses and how they use those tools can spark our imagination and give us an idea or insight into how we can do things better.

Today’s victim, er, interviewee:

My name is Bradley Chambers, and I am the Director of Information Technology at Brainerd Baptist School in Chattanooga, TN.

Were You at the Meeting Last Night?

Posted on July 19, 2016 by SGVAUG BlogMaster

If not, you missed some serious WOW!! How else can you describe images from outer space getting home and promulgated safe and sound?

At Coco’s, the word(s) was VPNs, tethering, politics, and the latest Star Trek movie.

That’s my story; I’m sticking to it!

Today’s victim, er, interviewee:

My name is Chris Powell, and I live in Bellingham, Washington. I’ve been a professional technologist for about 20 years now. Currently, I’m the IT Manager for the College of Business and Economics at Western Washington University. I am also an instructor with Whatcom Community College’s Community Education program, where I teach various technology classes. I have a freelance technology consulting business outside of my work with WWU and WCC, and I’m a co-host of Bellingham Podcast Media: Tech where we talk about life in Bellingham and discuss all kinds of technology topics.

To balance my tech life, I like BBQ grilling at home, finding creative ways to get 10,000 steps each day, and researching ways to hack my life. I’m the uncrowned king of all ’80s TV trivia, and have been spotted playing bass and electric guitar live at various venues around Whatcom County.
