#98 Editing Photos with Google Photos

Google Photos give you effortless management of your lifetime of photos. 
It is also a very capable photo editor. Learn all about it during our show this week. See how easy it is to turn a poor picture into one you can be proud to share. Like this photo of Mt. Rushmore:
We will also have special guests this week! Greg Gambone and Russ Buchmann are both part of the Google Top Contributors program, as is your host, Chris Guld. They will discuss some of the pros and cons of using Google Photos and demonstrate several before and after photos. All of this editing, crop, straighten, brighten, pop!, and more can be done right on your phone. It's not only easy, it's fun! For more sophisticated editing, we will demonstrate Snapseed.

#97 RV Rally - Living the RV Dream

10/16/16: This week will be a little different. We're at an RV rally called "Living the RV Dream." or LTRVD Gathering. We're going to interview a couple of other RVers here. We'll talk about RVing as well as the technology we use along the way. We'll probably have few smartphone tips and apps.
Eric and Tami from TechnoRV.com will join us as well as John and Kathy Huggins from LivingTheRVDream.com.
The founders of TechnoRV, Phil and Tracey May, were our partners in running our own "TechnoGeek Learning Rally" years ago. Now, with Eric and Tami this is feeling like our rally again!
We had a few technical difficulties, so this video is actually an edited version of the live show.

You probably use several Google Apps on your Android phone, and even on your iPhone or iPad. What do you do when you have a question? We'll show you the different ways you can find answers, starting right from the App. We'll also take you behind the scenes at Google's Top Contributor program. These are the people who answer your questions! Who knows, you could even become a Google Top Contributor if you have desire to become a product expert - we'll show you how.
We'll also have a tip and an app of the week. You can leave comments below. If we receive them before or during the live show, we'll try to answer on air.
