   I'm a fan of sending myself chrome links I find on my phone to my tablet over NFC. There are other ways to do it... but that is by far the most gratifying.

   On every single flight I take, the main reason why everyone loves my iPad Mini is because it is a Nexus 7. Edit: People ask: "is that the mini?". I avoid being a jerk about it and just say "It's the google one. One of the Nexus products. Th

    I did something similar last week -- you should invest in theming your site away from the default bootstrappy look/feel. Also it would be helpful to add details some more details about applying/switching themes and perhaps mention customizi
