Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Life in Balance

I started meditating roughly 45 years ago. It universally viewed as hokum. I practiced Transcendental Meditation, the same meditation that The Beatles studied in Rishikesh. Over the years, meditation/mindfulness has gained acceptance and proven scientifically to...

Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Light Cubed

Several months ago I reviewed the benefits of Bias Lighting, not just for setting ambience but regarding taxing your retinas. Lately, I have found myself being a creator of video not just a consumer. Appearing on the occasional podcast (what were they thinking?) and...

Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Where’d That Sound Come From?

Rogue Amoeba has seemingly been around since Edison was first occupying himself with wax cylinders. Rogue Amoeba has been the benchmark for audio software since the fledgling days of podcasting. Now they have unleashed a new version of one of their earliest releases...

Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Write Right

I have been reviewing software and hardware for about two decades. Sometimes the words just flow, other times I need to pry them from my skull. In college, I had a professor who always said ‘writing is rewriting.’ Too true. He died long ago but his guideline has...

Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Video Duke Shows Promise

Optical discs, remember them? Now they seem almost as antiquated as 8-tracks. (Google if you don’t know what they were. I believe that The Flintstones used to use them. Google them, too.) Streaming video is king. Other than subscription services and sites such as You...

Freshly Squeezed Reviews: KeepSolid Sign

There’s a very good chance that everything that you accomplish today will be when you’re mobile. Wherever you are, that’s your office.  Sometimes you’ll need to simply sign or initial papers to sign off on a project to move it forward. But that involves returning to...

Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Sky Tripping Legally

I’ve been meditating for many, many years. Suffice it to say that I used to double-date with Buddha. In the course of writing reviews, I have tested meditation/mindfulness apps from time to time. Some I have retained for my personal daily use. I find it extremely...
