And people with much more knowledge than me think self-hosting email is not longer a realistic option, anyway. So I will take this chance to migrate away from them. Migrating away from Google - a laundry list As it happens my Samsung also died at the same time (second time around - I don’t think I will bother with them any more), so it’s a chance to move to an iPhone. Except for GAS and accessing various APIs.Īt work we use GCP heavily of course, but outside work I don’t. I can keep using the free tier with one of my free accounts.

One of the beautiful things about tablet computers is their ability to amass so much reading material in a single device. But that literary nirvana - Kindle books, magazine iPad apps, Instapaper, RSS feeds - can be tough to manage. Flipboard, yet another source of delicious content, doesn't eliminate the need for other apps, but it sure collects a lot of great stuff in one place.

Browse everything from mainstream mags like People, Rolling Stone, and The Economist to websites like Bleacher Report and The Awl or video from Bloomberg, E!

Thanks to the iPad's big screen, Flipboard's photography section is a particular delight you can browse Flickr and Instagram feeds, FFFFound!, and images from The Guardian, National Geographic, and Pictory, among others.
