Saturday, August 13, 2016 at 9:00AM So part of this month’s Office 365 newsletter discussed that the iOS app is now available for access to your SharePoint site. Here is the Microsoft posting discussing this and below is a video running though the functions of this new application. Enjoy!

Thursday, August 11, 2016 at 9:00AM I love OneNote and it has become a central point of my daily information collection and distribution medium. Combine it with Office 365 and SharePoint file access on the internet and you have a product that will provide you a wonderful tool to capture your ideas and notes.
The earlier versions of OneNote when compared to the ability of products like EverNote was a little lacking. If you haven’t tried it out recently you really should. It is nothing like what it was a few years ago. Whether you are a school student, office worker or retired, this product is a winner.
In this article from blogs.office.com, they posted some of the new July updates to the OneNote program. The three main areas that have been added to include Inking, Clipping and Notifications. Take a look!
Wednesday, August 10, 2016 at 9:00AM We are very impressed with all of Ubiquiti’s products and this one look pretty good for the home environment. If you have a rambling home that you want to be able to light up with a mesh network wireless setup this might be a good answer to this issue that we have many customers coming in to us to discuss.
While extenders can sometimes fit the bill, having a complete system that is somewhat pre-configured for you that gives you a single connection from anywhere in your home and surrounding yard is a very positive thing. Take a look at this ArsTechnica review of the Ubiquiti Amplifi System.
Tuesday, August 9, 2016 at 12:06PM Here is a quick video I just put together showing how to restore your Outlook folders display if you accidentally lose it. It could happen in one of two ways so I have both of them listed in the video. Let me know if you have any questions.
Tuesday, August 9, 2016 at 9:00AM While the idea of placing a One-Click order on Amazon Prime and having the package delivered to you just thirty minutes later is very intriguing, this really is taking the shopping experience to a level that is suggesting pure laziness on our part. But is does fuel my geeky side as well.
This service dubbed “Amazon PrimeAir” suggests that there is a real strong case for the service as shown in the video below because we really need to instantly quiet down the screaming child.
While this is old news the video above shows a new drone prototype that has been released. This drone is designed to fly up to fifteen miles and up to 400 feet. It will be able to carry up to 5 lbs of cargo and unlike the original images we saw it will no longer be delivering your stuff in a plastic box but in a normal cardboard box that is carried internally in the drone.
While the same concerns that were mentioned in earlier reviews of this service still exists, Amazon is still actively pursuing this avenue of delivery.
Monday, August 8, 2016 at 9:00AM I sure you have seen an increase in unwanted solicitation call on your mobile phones like I have. Some are spam call any others are outright con artists trying to con you our or your hard-earned money. This article discusses how the FCC is requesting help from our phone carriers and Google’s plans on helping you to determine which calls should be blocked and their suggested method of letting you know and control these unwanted calls.

Sunday, August 7, 2016 at 9:00AM I am going to have to really control my need to have the newest and greatest gadget next spring when it is expected the replacement for the current Surface Book is expected to be released. While this one took me about a year of drooling over before I finally bit the bullet the new one might go come to me much more quickly.
So what should we expect for the next generation? First, the Intel next-gen Kaby Lake processor that will give you lower power consumption and it is suspected that it will be even thinner than it is now (how can that be). We may see NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 10 series inside, either the GTX1050 or GTX1060. That would make it extremely popular for those who need the graphics power.
The current Surface Book has a 3000x 2000 resolution display so expect we will reach 4k resolution of 3840 x 2160 or so. It is not expected to release until late Q2 2017 but with all these upgrades it should be worth the wait. I just hope that the battery life is still going to be there. That would be a big disappointment if we lose that aspect.
