Apple products are dear to my heart — but you knew that already. Cats, on the other hand, not so much. I am of the opinion that all cats belong outside — domesticated ones in a barn eating mice — not in my house and NOT near my cars. Apple’s choice to get away from cat names (cheetah, puma, jaguar, panther, tiger, leopard, snow leopard, lion, mountain lion) for their newest operating system and move forward to much more sophisticated dog naming — Mavericks (Mavericks is a surfing location in Northern California discovered in 1961 by three surfers and their dog… a white-haired German Shepherd named Maverick) — makes me pretty happy. Others? Not so much. Hashtags like, “#notcooltimcook #notcoolatall #steveiswatching” are being used by cat lovers everywhere. Heh.
Unlike one nameless, Apple loving friend ::cough:: Curt ::cough:: who is probably still running OS 7.6, I love upgrades. I’m digging how it’s so easy to have everything I want on every single product I own synced up and accessible.
But, there’s one cool thing that Windows phones have that iPhones do not. And, if this doesn’t make you think about your latest Facebook status, nothing will…
See that photo to the left? That’s what Perry currently sees when he opens his contact listing for Ben. His Windows phone automatically updates his contacts with their most recent FB status. Curious what his phone says about me, I find that it’s something about an unconscious soldier saluting. (Need to fix that.)
The newest Apple operating system update, OSX Mavericks, is receiving rave reviews around here… and from dogs everywhere!
