Thing 4. Keeping Up

I use Feedly as my RSS reader, since the demise of the Google product. I tried several, but Feedly does the trick. I use RSS a lot, so value being able to keep my links in such folders as Library, Art and Music, Politics, Technology, etc. Feedly has a pretty cool app for iPhone. Easy to scroll through and nice graphics, too.

Thing 3. Utilities

For this "thing" centered on Utilities, I used Google Search for iPhone. There are some interesting features, particularly Google Goggles. This app, which uses your phone's camera for access, appears to be driven by Google Image's dbs. Like many apps, sometimes it works fine, sometimes not. Here's some more info about Goggles

Thing 2. Mobile Device Tips

I watched the iPhone 5 video for this new "thing," which focused on various capabilities of IOS7. (BTW, the upgrade from 6 totally glitched out my phone's cellular data and caused me to spend many hours at the Genius Bar and on the phone to my provider. But success, eventually....) Some of the tips were pretty cool, like hiding those damn baked-in apps that I never use.

I'm back

The Upnorthlibrarian has returned. I'll be reviving this blog, mostly for the purpose of tracking my progress on the new "23 Things..." project, this time focusing on mobile.
