Send Free Holiday Video Messages with Vidoozi

Dec 172014

I received compensation as part of my relationship with Vidoozi through the Quality Blue Community. All opinions expressed are my own.

Keeping connected to family and friends around the country can take a little effort. Fortunately it’s a lot easier now than it was when I went off to college. There were cellphones and email back then, but no smartphones or video chats or anything like that.

Create custom videos - share a story, send a greeting - with the Vidoozi app for iPhone

Now there are even tons of apps that let you stay in touch in a variety of ways. But my new favorite is the Vidoozi app for the iPhone. In under five minutes you can easily create a custom video message for your friends and family – and it’s free! Continue reading »

Music Lovers There’s a New T-Mobile Plan for You!

Dec 172014

The technology that has gone into smartphones over the last few years really can make your head spin a little. They do everything! In one device you can talk, text, watch movies, stream music, play games, surf the web, create videos, take pictures – even use it as a remote control.

Much of that takes data, though, and as anyone who has paid a cellphone bill knows – data can get expensive. That’s why in this post sponsored by Lunchbox (all opinions are my own) you’ll be excited to learn that there is an awesome T-Mobile plan available from Walmart. It has unlimited talk, text and web plus free music streaming that doesn’t use your data all that for just $50 a month. Continue reading »

A few years ago I realized that I really needed a DSLR. The point-and-shoot I had been carrying around was fine for daily use but I wanted something a little more professional for the photos I share here. Plus we had a lot of “big” family events that were coming up (like college and high school graduation ceremonies) and I thought we’d get a lot of use from it.

I’m not one of those people that makes a bigger purchase easily. I hem and haw and read reviews, then hem and haw some more. Followed by more reviews, comparison shopping, all culminating in “I’ll just buy it later”. Continue reading »

Kind of like the Big Guy himself, I’ve been making my list and checking it twice over the last few days. Many things have been checked off, but I do still have a few tech gifts left to buy. In fact over dinner tonight we all talked a little tech as Austin narrowed down his wishlist a little.

A new gaming system is high on his list as the one he’s had for the last few years finally died. Right now we’re looking at the Xbox One at Best Buy. The Xbox One was built by gamers, for gamers, and if you’re wanting to play Halo it’s where you have to be as it’s an Xbox exclusive. You can also play games like Just Dace 15, Call of Duty (one of Austin’s faves), NBA 2K15 (another fave franchise), and more. Continue reading »
