This isn’t particularly related to backing up or protecting your data, but it is awesome. Those of us in technical fields can often take the technology for granted and fail to see the fact that it really is life-changing if it’s designed well and gotten into the right hands.
Those would be this woman’s hands.
I didn’t get the point of the iPad at first; in many ways I still don’t. It just feels like the Segway, something about which we’re all supposed to become uncontrollably excited, but which isn’t game-changing for anyone.
iPhad convert your iphone into an ipad
I was thinking too small: the iPad is game-changing for those with visual impairments. People like the 100-year-old Virginia, who had never used a computer before. Watch and see the Digital Revolution in action.
Oh, how I wish I wasn’t writing this from experience.
But I am.
This post; this one right here. This post, which is about how you iPhone addicts out there should always be sure to register with the websites associated with your apps, so that if (GAWD forbid) the JesusPhone gets raptured or falls into a toilet or whatever, you’ve got a backup of all the data that you’ve entered into it, a backup you can access and continue to use even without your Holy Handset.
Not all apps come with an associated website, but most fitness apps, personal databases like Contact lists, food logs and timekeepers do. And I won’t even mention, or yeah, maybe I will, the multiple iPhone locator apps that you should have installed. The thing comes with a GPS built-in. Use it.
I’m not gonna say it again, not gonna embellish it: just go, and register, and synch, and relax.
Because the most important part of your Jesusphone isn’t the black box: it’s your irreplaceable data.
Now that the newest godPhone is out (and at only $199), everyone will be putting their iPhone Classics up on eBay to make a quick killing, yes?
Not so fast, my phone-flipping friends. Before you dump that collectable in your mad frenzy for the New New Thing, make sure it’s well and truly empty of all your personal data.
Easier said than done, however. Apple provides no utility which will completely wipe out the contents of your iPhone, and several resold iPhones have inconsiderately turned up with the previous user’s information on them. There IS, however, a procedure which will totally clear the contents, but it’s not simple, and it takes about an hour.
Still, if you plan on selling your phone, it’s not exactly optional. The last thing you need is a stranger having access to your phone records.
