Don’t Hate Me, but I’ve been cheating on

IMG_0177 ….my Macbook.   Ever since I got my iPhone a few weeks ago, I’ve been spending more of my time on it and less time using my Macbook.   Activities such as checking email, Twitter, and organizing my day are done using the iPhone instead of lugging out the laptop.  I’m still not proficient enough with the touch screen keyboard – a texter I’m not, so I’ve still got a learning curve.   However, the one feature I’m really having fun with is the built in camera.  I’ve been so long without a working camera that I’ve forgotten the joys of snapping photos.  My family and co-workers now know my fascination with clouds after being forced to look at the hundreds of photos I’ve already snapped on my drive home and from around the house.  The one in this post was taking on the front stoop – the original subject was the clouds in the background, but I got distracted by my mom’s rosebush.  My point, you’ll probably be seeing more of my amateur photography skills now, so I’ll apologize in advance.

I’m also loving the voice memo app which comes in handy when I’m in the car and need to make a note to remember something.  I don’t usually have pen and paper handy.  Which brings up the most wonderful feature(s) of the iPhone – The Apps Store!  I’ve been going wild surfing and downloading apps, but that’ll be another post.

    Sounds like you are really getting your money’s worth from the iphone! Will you even bring the Mac to AASL?

    Yep! So loving my iPhone, but it can’t truly replace my Macbook. Of course I’ll be bringing the Macbook. While I love the iPhone, I just can’t type very fast on that itty bitty keyboard. As I’ve said before, I’m not a texter. In fact, I sent my very first text message this past summer – and that was only to reply to someone.

    Looking forward to seeing you and the crew as well as folks from Twitter/PLN face-to-face finally.
