Apple Watch Series 5 and the Phone Call of Sadness™
Lately, Steve and I have started upgrading our phones and watches every single year. I’m starting to seriously question this strategy.

The Problem to be Solved Flotato Interface One of my pet peeves in app development right now is how many services only work on mobile. I know I’m an old lady but I really like to type and interact with the world via a big-girl keyboard on a real computer. Don’t get me wrong, you […]
