Venmo - send money https://venmo.com/

Fax Zero - Send up to 5 faxes for free. 3 pages per fax. https://faxzero.com/

MyFonts.com - Find what fonts are used in a picture with the WhatTheFont tool https://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/

PDF Escape - Edit PDFs. Very useful when on a phone or tablet. Can also install a Desktop app for Windows https://www.pdfescape.com/

Printwhatyoulike.com - Print sections of a web page, not the whole page. Useful for social media posts

We had some High School students submit questions to us about jobs in the IT industry.

We try to answer the questions about prospects, pay, and opportunities. There are so many good questions we have to split this in to two shows.

We talk about the paywalls on news sites. We try not to say whether they are good or bad, just how they work and how to get around them... if you are so inclined to do so. 

We talk about best practices for lithium ion battery life. 

We talk about our go-to shopping sites where we find the best deals online.

We discuss whether warranties are as valuable as they once were. Online, in-store, and credit card warranties. 

We talk about IT certification options and I quiz Derrick and Maxwell with certification questions. 

Derrick and I discuss our IT pedigrees and history and how the IT industry has changed since we started.

We talk about the small Comic Con we attended.

We talk about our experience as IT professionals and educational prospects for those wanting to become an IT professional.
