A few apps I can’t be without!

I have an Google Nexus 6P, an android phone. I love it. The apps that I really use on it are only a handful, though, in some weak moments, I end up installing a few which I would use off and on. I am pretty disciplined about getting rid of stuff that I don’t use. First and foremost, I love the fingerprint support on my Nexus. it is not perfect, but it works beautifully and I pray every day that no one cuts my finger off when they want to steal my phone!

I will not go into too much details about the usual suspects – all of the Google Apps that I simply cannot do without. The ability to edit docs & spreadsheets, or share them easily with others from my phone has made my life much simpler! I use these apps all the time. I love Google Hangout and have forwarded all my SMS to it and you already know about my use of Google Voice, so I don’t have to tell you about that either. I do not have a GPS in my car, so I will be totally lost without Google Maps and Waze!

My “first” post

I am glad to begin my first post on the Wellesley blog about two months after I began my work here. In the two months, I have had a chance to meet with many of the faculty and staff. In addition, it was a lot of fun to meet with two groups of Albright Fellows to discuss how technologies, especially  communication technologies, are influencing the world. I have also spent time trying to understand the work of all Information Services staff. It has been a pretty busy couple of months.

However, thanks to all the IS staff, we have made a lot of progress in such a short period of time, some of which I will discuss here.
