iPad guide, tutorials, tips and app reviews
E-mail addresses, Passwords, pin numbers, account numbers, usernames, secret questions. Modern life has its perks and benefits but creates new challenges for our long-term memory and headaches as well. The more devices we use and more time we spend online, the more passcodes, pins and passwords we need to remember.
But how many passwords can our brains remember?
It depends on the individual but as the amount of passwords pile up we will need a better solution
A few days ago, I received an email with a question about spam email on the iPad from Sandy (who is a reader of this blog). I did some research and instead of just writing her back, I thought it would be nice to share the answer with all my readers.
The question was about how to report or flag emails as Spam on a Yahoo! Mail account on the iPad.

In the not so recent past, we used to take pictures while on vacation or during family events and then send the films to be developed. Touching up pictures was expensive and reserved only for professionals.
Those born in the digital era may not even know about that “technology”. Digital point and shoot cameras as well as smart-phones and tablets
Birthdays, holidays, Mother’s or Father’s day, a token of appreciation, a thank-you… These are all valid reasons to buy an App or a music album and send it as a gift to family, friends or colleagues.
Think about it. How long does it take you to drive to a store, select a gift (or gift card), make the purchase, and drive back home?
From your iPad (and in a matter of a few minutes) you can select the desired gift, personalize it and send it directly to the inbox of your friend, relative, or co-worker. Sounds cool?! Want to know how to do this?
Mothers mean the world to us! They raised us and helped us become who we are today. Sometimes they can drive us a little bit crazy with their comments or suggestions but we know they mean well… right? ;-)
Mother’s day is coming up soon and I thought it would be nice to prepare a review of cool iPad related gifts for Mother’s day for all kind of budgets.
About a month ago I published E-Cards for Mothers Day. Sending E-Cards and buying flowers
is a great way to get started.
If your mom (or wife…) already has an iPad, this might be a good opportunity to enhance her experience with new accessories, Apps, books or music
Are you one of those people who is always in a rush?
Would you like to write emails in the blink of an eye?

A question I often get asked is how to create a photo album on iPad. We all like taking pictures to help us remember special occasions or our travel adventures. We then download the pictures to our iPad and have to sort them into different albums to keep organized and to be able to track our favourites at a later date. By having each album labelled, it is so much easier to show our pictures and share our stories with friends.

So how do we go about creating albums on the iPad?
Games on the iPad are always a great distraction and a lot of fun.
Due to my recent addiction and love of racing games, I thought it would be a good idea to write an article about Car Racing games on iPad. Beware my readers, these games are so engaging
You may recall from a previous article on iPad gestures how to access the multi-tasking bar. For a refresher, click here.
When you show the multitasking bar, a lot of App icons may appear. Most of these Apps are in a suspended state which means the App is not closed but it is held in memory (although not necessarily using CPU or processing time). There are other Apps such as
When you buy an iPhone or iPod touch, you get an App called Voice Memos. This App comes in very handy when you need to record a meeting or lecture, or when you want to say something to yourself but you are in a rush and cannot type it.
I do not know why, but there is no such App on iPad. The good news is that there are several voice recording Apps
When kids are asked about their hardest subject in school, the answer is generally math. Of course, parents and teachers know the importance of math and want their children to achieve good marks. For many children, success means a lot of practice and studying. Kids in general want to play and have fun but practicing math usually does not qualify…
Unless, you discover King of Maths.
King of Maths is a fun and engaging math game for children
