Otto tells it like it is
Many tech reviews are long-winded and really a bit like watching the trailer to a movie, where nothing is new when you actually go to see the movie. Well, this tech site is short and to the point. You’ll be lucky if we even say hello before we tell you what you need to get. … Continue reading

Top Ten iPad Apps
I have been thinking that I should write this post for a long time. You see, in my little world, I’m the person that people ask when they want to know what apps are best for such and such. I don’t know that I’m as expert as some, but I definitely try out and use … Continue reading
