Have you ever watched the Golden Girls? Remember when Sophia would say, “Picture it, Sicily 1953.” Well I’m about to have a Sophia moment (lol). Picture it, 2003 a tech savvy New York sista (that’s me) absolutely loves buying the latest gadgets. If it was hot on the Circuit City shelves, I had to have it and I worked hard to get it. Now flash forward a few years later and I’m writing posts about how to breath new life into my old laptop. These days the only new gadgets I see are Leapster Learning Systems for my toddler.
I work from home, as you know, so most days my laptop, graphics programs, and external hard drive are pretty much all I need. While I was at Blogalicious 2010, I discovered 5 gadgets that every blogger and entrepreneur should have in their mobile office.
If you read my first lesson learned, I told you I spent all day Friday running around trying to catch a flight to the conference. That included frantic calls to the hotel, family, and hubby, which killed my cell phone battery. Every time I got to another airport I was scrambling to find an outlet to charge my phone AND then at the conference it was always that moment when I really wanted to take a picture or do video that my battery would die. As luck would have it, during my time as one of the volunteers for the Blogalicious Geek Lounge, I got to chat with Jessica, a representative from a company called iGo. They make portable battery chargers so you can charge your mobile device on the go AND they are environmentally friendly. I found myself saying, “I wish I had one of these when I missed my flight!” I’m going to get one (hopefully), test it out, and tell you about it in more detail later.
