Questions and Answers
- Aren't we worried that Google will start charging us for their services some day and that we will all be too locked in to say ?no'? Not really. It's not that hard to leave a service, and Google makes their money off of information so we're more concerned about what they may do with that information. If you want out now, check out these alternatives.
- How do I sync files across the local network without paying for online storage? Crashplan offers free local backups, but rolling your own Dropbox-like service is probably the best way to go.
- I'm still grandfathered in to Verizon's unlimited data switchover but I don't really use that much data. How can I make better use of my unlimited data plan? A lot of people are clinging to their unlimited data plans but we don't really understand because there's not much of a reason to have it and it costs so much less to get lesser plans (in most cases). If you really want to keep using it, however, just tether your phone as much as possible and stream music whenever you can.

How Do I Submit a Question?
Please keep your questions as brief as possible. This means about 3-5 sentences for emails and 30-60 seconds for calls and videos. Your questions can be specific, but broader questions are generally better because they'll apply to more people. For example, "how can I breathe new life into my old PDA?" is much better than "what can I do with an old HP iPAQ 210?" Either way, we look forward to hearing from you!
