Have I mentioned how much I love my iPad? I didn't really want one. Now, I'm in love with this little device. At first, I thought it was nothing more than a giant phone. After Jeff won one for me in a contest, I'm addicted! These tablets are what I'm calling my favorite "Edu-Taninment" device.
Here are some reasons to love these things:
1. Choose productivity or edutainment. Anytime or place can now be productive, educational or entertaining, instead of wasted time. For example, Jeff and I live in San Antonio and Atlanta, as well as traveling to speaking engagements. These tablets are so much smaller than big bulky laptops.
Productivity - One of my favorite things lately is note-taking apps. I used to have tons of legal pads strewn around my office for my brainstorming notes, etc. I would take my notepads to seminars when I was going to go learn something. Now I just have my iPad, I write my notes on the screen and I can export them in a bunch of different ways and file formats. And I have my important notes with me all the time, no tons of paper following me around. So, it's extremely easy to use and it makes me a lot more productive than I used to be.Education - If you love to read, you'll love these devices. I'm a voracious reader. And I read several books at a time, which makes it difficult and irritating if you're going on a longer trip. You don't want to take a bunch of books. I have about 50 books on my tablet and my library's just growing. If I choose to change books mid-paragraph, I can do so. I also listen to a lot of training audio, and I can have hours and hours of different trainings on this device.
Entertainment - I love watching movies and documentaries when I'm on an airplane. You can download the movie, watch it, there's no getting the horrible wifi on the airplane that doesn't allow you to stream anything. You've got the whole movie downloaded to your little tablet so you can watch it with no problem on a plane. Or wherever.
2. You can become a content publisher with little effort. OK, so this is both a great thing and a terrible thing all rolled into one. Anyone can produce content and then spread it all over the internet. So you can promote your favorite cause, promote your business, you can share silliness, etc...
You can also create some really terrible content, you can share hate and you can also become an internet troll. (You know, those people who anonymously trash anyone and everyone around them viciously?) Hopefully, you'll create some great and inspiring content to share.
So this little device has become something that I take with me all the time. My husband laughs at me as I walk around the house with my iPad reading, and he's threatened to take it away!
