In this episode, Myke discusses the upcoming change in his “day job”. He was a bank manager and is now moving into marketing. This change was helped by his work with 70Decibels. We discuss idea that many of the things that we do “on the side” have ripple effects on other things in our lives. Both positive and negative. We also discuss that sometimes, the goals we set for where we want to be take years to work towards and achieve.

In this episode, Myke and I discuss a new side project of mine. It’s a new site called iPad First. I talk about how the site came to be and my motivation for doing it. We also discuss the role and importance of the iPad for Apple as a whole.

In this episode, I am once again joined by Mr. Stephen Hackett of 512 Pixels while Myke is on a super secret mission for MI6. In this episode, I discuss the case to be made for not always upgrading to the latest, greatest, new thing. That, perhaps, if there is no compelling reason to do so then one may want to consider just keeping what is already working well enough for them.

In this episode, Mr. Stephen Hackett of 512 Pixels sits in the driver’s seat while Myke is “on holiday” as they say over on his side of the planet. We discuss journalling in particular and the freshly updated Day One app in particular. I believe that the key to keeping a journal is to keep the barrier to do so as low as possible.

In this episode, based on a listener request, Myke and I discuss what apps and practices I use to to determine where my iPad fits into “enough”. For the record, I still have an original iPad (WiFi, 64gb) and it is still enough for me. Myke takes a different, yet similar, approach by describing where his new Nexus 7 fits in for him.
