When you’re on the road or travelling you need to take notes on your iPhone. There are usually three ways: taking notes on the iPhone Notes application, take a Voice Memos audio recording (see my previous blog posts, Dictate on an iPhone, note taking and syncing with iTunes, or taking Voice Memos on an iPhone), or if you have an app that you can do videos, check out Apple’s compare phones web site to see what video differences there are between the 3GS, 4, and 4S.
Wow, been really two weeks since I last blogged.
Been REALLY busy lately with a few new projects, so my blogging is behind. I’ve also changed how often I’ll blog my content and some of my blogging is moving in another direction. Having said that, here’s my latest post.
My wife is in real estate and her real estate office is moving toward digitizing their real estate paperwork and files. Some offices are still in the “paper world” and won’t use technology, or at least, may just have a fax as their main move toward technology. So until offices get on board with standardizing their digital processes, there’s this gap between the technology have and have nots.
Sending a fax to my wife’s office creates a fax and sends it by email as a PDF to her email Inbox. Because her office is digitizing the files, she gets any number of faxes and PDF files that have multiple documents in each PDF file that need to be split out for her to upload to their document server, i.e. separate out each document so you know if all of the required documents are there to process. It’s hard to determine this when the PDF is one long file.
While her office fax internal processes are better than most offices, it’s still a pain for her to “manually” separate each one. Until I found a simpler process, she use to have to reprint out each PDF document, scan each document separately into their system, then send each document so that each could be uploaded into their document server.

As a startup entrepreneur you get lists of name in Excel spreadsheets and in most cases there is one column with the first name and a column for the last name, but on occasion both names are in the same column. Or you get the City, State, and Zip in the same column and can cause headaches with having to sort this data.
Along comes MS Excel 2008 which has a data trick that helps clear up your list of names or any list for that matter. Let’s take a look at how we can do this.
Apple recently had their iPhone 4S launch, to some an anticipated new Apple product, to others a MUCH anticipated new Apple product which became disappointing. Did Apple miss it? Did Apple flub it? How could Apple disappoint their customers so much?
Well, let’s take a look.
Here’s a great video on how Orabrush got into Walmart stores. They did not use the traditional routes that other companies take, such as trade publications, etc. They used targeted Facebook ads. Oh, and notice they use a Mac for their business in the video.
The ethics of being a startup entrepreneur is about doing good for both you and your customer. Sort of like a business doctor: Doing no harm to your customers with your products and services. One of the things about businesses is when you’re doing the right thing you and your customer BOTH make things better. Well, here’s a story about someone that is using organic farming which actually makes doing a garden, using the right techniques, that you’ll actually be healthier because of the techniques used by Paul Gautschi.
If you watch Paul’s gardening techniques, you’ll be amazed at how simple things make a BIG difference. Watch and learn.
So, here’s the answer to our food situation.
