1. What are the tools you use to blog?

My 15in MacBook Pro. I like it so much more than my old 13in MacBook because the screen is bigger and much much clearer. I also love my iPhone 4S for the camera (and apps like HootSuite and Instagram), along with my SLR, tripod, and remote for serious photos. I really love technology. I’ve actually been blogging and doing web development since I was eleven, so that’s almost fourteen years now.

2. What technology item is on your wish-list?

iPad 3! I borrowed an iPad 2 for IFB and it was a lifesaver. The wireless network worked on it while my phone was basically a useless piece of expensive technology. I’m sure it must be amazing with 3G (or the rumored 4G) if it’s not on AT&T in New York.

3. Through the barrage of posts, tweets, pics, poses, messages, etc… how do you avoid becoming a slave to the constant infiltration of information?

I adore Twitter, but half the time it’s just like scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll. I hardly ever check my phone at work (and yes, I get anxiety about that) so I am semi-unplugged for a good number of hours during the week.

I can never decide if I spend too much time or too little blogging. I’m inclined to think too little, actually. I never seem to have enough time for my blog and reading blogs.

    I really love instagram and twitter, but i feel like people post too much.
    quality not quantity, people! Twitter especially. There is just too much junk, bits of conversations I can’t (and wouldn’t want to) follow, and not enough tweets that are genuinly interesting. And most of the time I miss them because I’m too busy scrolling through “Ahhh, why can’t I stop Pinning things?!”
    Why do you need to tweet that? Tweet me something useful.

    And i love my 15″ macbook pro. but it’s from 2008 and starting to show it’s age, and I still haven’t upgraded past leopard…. I need Lion ($60 since i have to buy snow leopard too) 8 gigs of ram ($50) and do they make TB internal drives yet?? ($500, i’m sure if it’s out there).

      I think my Twitter is so boring all the time. My 15in is from 2009 and my hard drive is stuffed. My external’s filling up too but it’s only 500GB. They do have TB now and they’re like $150 tips hahahhaa. I should get one.
      Also Lion is crap. I hate it. Snow Leopard is more than adequate.
