(Donā€™t) Wash Beats Fit Pro

Iā€™ve had a pair of Beats Fit Pro for a couple of years now and they are great for running and general use but they donā€™t like washing machines.Ā  I know they are not fully water proof so if Iā€™m running in the rain I will put them in a zip lock bag and keep them in my pocket. My last run I forgot to take them out after the run and the shorts went through the wash. Proving not to be water proof, they still charge and work fine except for a strange constant humming noise and they will...

Lately, Iā€™ve been feeling puzzled by the growing movement to ban children below a certain age from accessing social media.

I never have real issues with battery life, the screen is bright and clear and paired with my yellow Ocean Band is super comfortable whilst looking great. Someone even commented on...

Lauryn Hill did not choose to be number one

This week Apple wrapped up its 100 Best Albums and apart from the website itself being a good example of web design gone bad, it really did make some interesting choices of Albums in the list. I am no music expert but I know have a reasonably varied taste and can enjoy most genreā€™s. I went in with an open mind and I really donā€™t want to pass judgement on whether the list is ā€œcorrectā€. I very much enjoyed checking the list daily and adding albums that I may not have come across and adding them to my Library. So...
