Liquid iPad3 in a bottle!

Hottest rumour about iPad3 – delivered directly by a messenger from Mercury!

All you Apple-fans out there, waiting for the magic event today when Apple will reveal their curtains and tell us what the new iPad3 will look like – I will tell you something that will make you drool of desire to get your brand new iPad3 sooner than possible.

We have all read the different rumors: a 7 inch iPad, HD-iPad, an iPad with ”texture-feeling” on the touchscreen and one of the latest rumors is that the iPad3 will be made out of liquid metal.

Well, since I am Asa In The Middle Of The World I don’t have to chase rumors, the important news and facts come to me by themselves. Like now. This messenger boy arrived from Mercury and told me that this is what the iPad3 will be like:

It will be made out of touch sensitive liquid metal with a ”memory”, that means it can be stored in different ways.

You can for example buy a small bottle of Liquid iPad3 and then pour a drop of it in your hand and voila, you will get a macro sized iPad in your hand. Add a drop and the metal drops will join one another and form an iPad with the size of two drops. Though, unless you are an ant there won’t be much you can do with it. So, you better pour out some more , why not the whole bottle and then you will get an iPad about the size you have today.

The iPad bottles will come in different sizes so that you can decide the size of your device all by yourself. You will also be able to buy a spray can with liquid iPad3 so that you can spray your iPad on different surfaces, for example a wall.

It’s like a miracle! And when you want to store you liquid iPad you just say ”AppleKadapra” and it will go back into the bottle.

There you go! I’m sorry if I spoiled today’s event for you, now that you know…

Missing feature for iPad!

I think iPad needs an option with protected material/apps. IPads are so nice and inviting that people often want to borrow it and try it out. It’s also usual to show sales information on iPad and the kids love to play with it. Everyone who takes your iPad in their hands get access to everything! That could be really bad.

  • Imagine if a kid erase something?
  • Imagine if you keep secret material on your iPad and a curious person checks it out?
  • Imagine if you create personal stuff like poems, pictures or music and everyone gets access to it?

Please Apple, give us a way to protect some of the material we have on our iPads!

 

iPad Apps that I like!

Since I started to use iPad in december 2010 a lot of my habits have changed. When I got my first iPad I thought that I was going to buy newspapers and magazines, but in fact I haven’t done that at all. I read the articles I want to read in Flipboard och Zite. On the other hand I have bought several e-books and I read them in both  iBooks and Kindle. I also have Bluefire, but only to be able to read books from the Swedish e-library, Elib. I also read almost every pdf that is sent to me, on my iPad and if I need to comment or make notes I use GoodReader.

I have been using Evernote for taking notes since 2009. Even if I only had an iPhone and a MacBook by then, it was still making my life easier to be able to sync notes between the devices. When I got my iPad it became even easier. One thing I wasn’t content with was the To-Do-lists apps. That was until we started to use Wunderlist. Both me and Roine have started to use Wunderlist and that means we can share project-lists with each other and then we can follow when the tasks get done one after one in our own devices. Makes working together a lot easier!

An app that is new to me is Blogsy. I like it more and more for every time I use it. I have tested other apps for blogging but they made me feel uncomfortable. Blogsy has a new type of user interface that makes it more fun to blog! Though, it didn’t come natural to start with, I have spent some time with understanding it’s features and I still haven’t learned everything. Originally I wrote this blogpost in Swedish and did it all in Blogsy on my iPad, but now when I translate and make changes in the text I use my MacBook because it’s such a complicated blogpost with lots of links and pictures.

Garageband is an app that I have had for a long time. First on my MacBook and then on my iPad. But it was something that stopped me from understanding how to take the first step, I got irritated and just left it. It might have something to do with that I haven’t got a clue about how to compose music, but some week ago I could make it work and now I have actually made my first song on iPad. I even used the iPad’s mic, so the song sounds a bit cold. But who cares? I made it! I published the song on Soundcloud. I didn’t get the time to put the end of the song in it, but I carry it in my head, so, who knows, maybe there will be a next time?

Vårsolen by Åsa YES, the title in english is ”The Spring Sun” and I have added a swedish translation on Soundcloud.

Like I wrote in an earlier blogpost I also draw on my iPad.

The fact is that I use my iPad all the time! The other day I said to Roine: ”iPad is really an Åsa-machine! I think there’s almost no end for how long I could entertain myself with my iPad…”

Drawing on my iPad?

I have discovered that I like to sit with my iPad on the couch and draw and paint. I use my Wacom Bamboo Stylus and the app ArtSet. I have tested some other apps as well, but it’s still not possible to draw with precision with the stylus I use and as far as I know there’s still no app that is not even close to my favorite software Corel Painter, so I am content with just ”daub” with paint. And I have not tested to print the images, so I don’t know how good the printing quality is.
But the point is that I really like to sit with my iPad and my stylus and paint. It’s very relaxing. When the day comes when someone has made a real quality art app, like an iPad version of Painter, then I will even be able to work professionally with the iPad. That would be so cool!
The picture? Well, one of all the hearts I paint. This one is like inverted. It’s a heart that has lost it’s power, but is surrounded with love.
