Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Macpaw Keeps the Hits Coming With Gemini Photos
For years there have been at least two MacPaw apps on my Mac - Clean My Mac and Gemini. Then over a year ago, MacPaw entered into a whole new market with Setapp, a subscription based app store that is ever expanding and adding more apps to my collection. Apparently,...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: Throttlegate = iChicken Little
If you have read any newspaper as of late, you have to wonder where people's heads are at politically, socially, etc. But this recent brouhaha over Apple's mucking with its iOS code for ill gotten gain would be laughable if so many people didn't really believe it....
Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Parking Mobility
I am power wheelchair bound. But that doesn’t stop me from getting out and about. I am fortunate enough to have a conversion van with hand controls and a retractable ramp. This allows me to go to the theater, to dinner, to visit friends, and so on. In fact, I drove...
Freshly Squeezed Reviews: MagBak Again Has My Back
I first used MagBak years ago on my iPad. Being able to magnetically place my iPad anywhere that I needed to was priceless. Fast forward about ten years. Ever since I purchased my first iPhone, I’ve used it in my car for one reason or another. Nowadays, I stream...
Freshly Squeezed Reviews: A Boost and a Bust
With the release of Music, I have rediscovered the joy of listening to sounds new and revisited as I drive roughly two hundred miles per week. The first thing that I do when I get into my vehicle is get out my iPhone 6S 64GB and connect it to my power source and the...

It's been over one week since the release of the iPhone 6S and the iPhone 6S+. Since then, we have been inundated with podcasts and articles from reviewers relating their experiences with their new smartphones over their first weekend of usage. We've been treated to...
Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Singular Apps
This month, I take a page out of Don's playbook and review several iOS apps that do one thing and one thing alone. It may be useful, it may be revealing or merely a complete waste of my time (in a good way). Every now and again, do you find yourself rummaging through...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: Emergency Kit
Due to recent events that would make for a riveting feature film (the part of Frank Petrie will be played by Jack Black), I spent an inordinate amount of 2013 in hospital and rehab. But I learned that I could still carry on socially and professionally with a bit of...
Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Podcasts Comparison
Instead of a regular review, I'm going to do a comparison for a change. Over the next two software articles, we're going to compare four of the better known iOS podcast clients on the market today. This month, we're going to look at Apple's Podcasts and iCatcher. Next...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: Breathe Deep
I finally got around to watching the WWDC keynote in its entirety this past weekend. I was braced for the worst from the tweets I read and headings that I saw on MacSurfer. Imagine my surprise that when the keynote was finished I was elated! Tim Cook was at ease and...
