Full disclosure: We are fans of Pink Floyd That said, when many of us saw mention of David Gilmour referenced in an iPad app, we paid our 99 cents and downloaded. The app, Metallic Spheres, is actually a universal app that is linked to his new project and not his guitar work of the past. [...]
We have talked about using the iPad the way you previously use a paper Moleskin. Now, you can actually join the two worlds of electronic paper and ‘real’ paper in a new case. The folks that create the Moleskin notebooks are introducing a new case that will wrap your iPad in what looks like the [...]
While the iPad is about the size of a notepad of paper, it can do much more with the written note. Some apps have you taking notes by typing them in, others convert your handwriting to text and still others leave you handwriting the way you wrote it. If there is a need to share [...]
In a workflow design meeting today, it a couple of us that we have always talked about mindmapping type software here but never about the special needs of processes. When laying out a workflow, you will have some items that wrap back on themselves. As in; step 1 leads to step 2 leads to step [...]

The Pogo stylus has been covered here time to time where we use it to write notes or draw with apps that need [...]
Around the office, we are always jazzing things up by personalizing the back of our iPads with vinyl sticker or wrapping a case all around. Most of us forget that we can now change the background image for both the opening lock screen as well the image behind the pages of app icons. Looking around [...]
We have talked about how we use the iWork apps around the office. Some Keynote, some Numbers and a lot of Pages. (Why we have pictures on our iPad – Part 1) Normally, we share items we create via email, now Apple has updated all of their iWork apps with MobileMe. Allowing you to create [...]
A few weeks ago we went into detail about why we are so interested in storing, editing and using photos through our iPads.
