The Convenience of Mini Backdrops

February 1, 2017

Convenience of Mini Backdrops — 5 benefits of using vinyl backgrounds for photographyLast year I had the pleasure of being selected as a brand ambassador for Mini Backdrops. Over four months have passed since I received my choice of designs, so my three-month stint is already up. Still, I like them so much, I want to share some of the benefits I particularly have come to appreciate about Mini Backdrops.

My Experience with AbeBooks

December 16, 2016

My Experience with AbeBooks; Why I probably won't order there againWhen I buy books, I tend to be quite specific about the editions I choose. I compare the various cover designs, then pick the ones I like best. The largest obstacle to obtaining my preferred book editions is when they go out-of-print. In those cases, buying them second-hand is the only option. That’s why I recently decided to order via AbeBooks.

Kindle Upgrade

July 23, 2016

Kindle Upgrade: Comparing first generations Kindle Oasis and Kindle PaperwhiteThree months ago I weighed in on the Kindle Oasis ahead of its release date. I noted the features I wished Amazon had announced and evaluated what they did announce. The Kindle Oasis wasn’t the ideal device that I wished for but in the end, I still decided to upgrade from my Kindle Paperwhite (2012).

On the Upcoming Kindle Oasis

April 15, 2016

On the Upcoming Kindle Oasis; Some personal thoughts from an ebook-loving bibliophileI wanted an ebook reader since I was 9 years old. That was in 1999. Back then they didn’t exist in the market. Hardly any bibliophile even dreamt of one. I first learnt of its early developments through Medizini, a monthly poster magazine for children available at German apothecaries. They used to have a column predicting inventions of the near and distant future. None fascinated me more than a tablet for reading digital books.
