Save your MacBook screen

15 November 2015 by kristarella Leave a Comment

It’s a thing with MacBook screens that sometimes they get marks from the keyboard on the screen. I think it’s most likely to happen with the retina screens that don’t have a significant portion of case around the screen, but it can happen with the MacBook Airs too.

Google Maps for iPhone: woooot!

13 December 2012 by kristarella

The official Google Maps for iPhone came out today! I’m pretty excited. Apple maps wasn’t so bad, if you live in California and possibly inner-city China.
