6:00 am | My tablet alarm goes off. It automatically rings a little earlier on Wednesdays, because I get to work a little earlier. I notice there's a chance of rain, so I pack my umbrella. | Chapter 23 |
6:50 am | I head into work and listen to some tunes on Google Music as I drive. | Chapter 21 |
8:30 am | I've got an early meeting, so I grab my tablet and a Bluetooth keyboard to take a few notes with Evernote. | Chapter 3, 18 and 24 |
8:45 am | I notice I've got an email message, so I check to see if it's something I need to read right away or reply to later. | Chapter 8 |
10:00 am | I've got an appointment across town. I've never been there, so I use Google Maps and my tablet's GPS to find the quickest spot for the traffic conditions. | Chapter 11 |
10:30 am | My clients arrive, so I give my presentation on my tablet using the PowerPoint file I saved in myDropbox folder. | Chapter 18 |
12:00 am | My meeting went well, so I spend some of my lunch hour decompressing. I plug in my headphones and listen to my favorite Pandora station while reading a Kindle book I purchased last week. | Chapter 17 and 21 |
1:00 pm | I start working on my next presentation. This time, I take some photos and make a video slide show for YouTube. | Chapters 19 and 21 |
2:00 pm | I get a quick video call from a colleague in New York. The front-facing camera is great for video chats. | Chapter 16 |
4:00 pm | I check the Calendar app to make sure I've met all my work obligations, and then head home to my family. | Chapter 10 |
5:30 pm | I look up a chicken recipe on the Internet and take my tablet with me to the kitchen to try it out. | Chapter 12 |
6:00 pm | While I'm in the kitchen cooking, I sneak in a quick TV show on Netflix. | Chapter 19 |
7:00 pm | The kids borrow the tablet to play a few rounds of Angry Birds before bed. | Chapter 22 |
10:00 pm | I check on my family and friends on Facebook, and then I put my tablet on its charging cradle, knowing it will wake me up again in the morning. | Chapter 15 |
