If not, you missed even more great iOS 8 tips, some seriously hysterical cartoons, and a great bunch of new people!
At Coco’s, we touched on Contacts on an iPad Mini, (shocking) revelations of age, Skype and/vs FaceTime, (Russian) counterfeiting, and potato vs sweet potato fries.
That’s my story; I’m sticking to it!
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 Álvaro Serrano and I live in Madrid, Spain. I’m the author and publisher of Analog Senses, a website about the human side of technology featuring links and articles on design, photography, Apple, and the tech industry in general, as well as other interesting things currently happening on planet Earth.
For the past six years I used to work as a researcher and software developer at Technical University of Madrid. During that time I did quite a bit of software development in several major platforms, including iOS, OS X, Windows, Linux, Android and the Web. Right now I’m in the middle of a career transition and I’m trying to grow Analog Senses into a sustainable business. As of the end of July, I consider it my full-time job.

My name is Fraser Speirs and I’m primarily a teacher of Computer Science at Cedars School of Excellence in Greenock, Scotland. I also have responsibility for all the IT provision at my school, so I’m a fully-responsible sysadmin too. I also blog at speirs.org and have a podcast with Bradley Chambers called Out of School.

My name is Brad Dowdy, and I am a pen addict. By day, I write pen reviews at The Pen Addict and make pen cases at Nock Co with my partner, Jeffrey Bruckwicki. By night, I am a UNIX admin at a datacenter. All of the other hours I am a husband and father. There is sleep in there somewhere, too. Maybe.
