Timothy Goleman, April 6, 2016Video is one of the biggest things happening in the world of Facebook. Video content will continue to grow over the next few years.

Timothy Goleman, March 24, 2016I will admit I love iOS Devices. I try to keep the blog a little more centered. However, that said I do tend to skew more towards iOS since that is what I use most often. I have a Nexus 7 tablet that I use from time to time. This makes me aware of the […]
