iPhone: Record your screen
Ever had that time when you wanted to show someone how to do things on their iPhone or iPad or just a simple tutorial for a friend? I’m sure you do.

Smartphones for the seniors
Here’s an interesting buyers’ guide from Tom’s Guide. A collection of smartphones recommended for seniors.

$1 trillion
That’s how much Apple’s market cap is right now. Well, that happened last Thursday according to a report from CNBC.

What could that mean? I’m not yet so sure. It could probably mean that Apple can do whatever it wants with its products and how it deals with its customers and we all can’t do anything about it.
But that’s just a conjecture from my part.
