What's Up with Jim and Chris - the Geeks?
|
February was a busy month, we'd just finished the Discovery Owners rally in Tampa, then went to Riverside RV Park in Arcadia to teach more smartphone photography and Google Photos. We were especially happy with our hands-on workshops there on
editing photos and making albums. This was the 4th time we've been invited to teach at Riverside since 2013.
March is going to be a catch up month as I am way behind on updating my Google Photos book, and I'm starting to hear about it from our readers! Yes! Keep bugging me. I have set a launch date for May 1 now and am determined to get it done. See article later.

We've had a busy January and February.
Only one Technology Club presentation in March.
We have a big personal dive trip planned, though.
There is a Roadtrek rally after we return in April and nothing in May.

Jim and I are scuba divers and I’ve come up with a way of plotting dive sites on a custom map. This same technique could be used for RV boondocking sites, or backpacking campsites, or fishing sites. These are all places that need GPS coordinates in order to locate them.

It was a long time in coming, but Google Photos now can add text right to a photo. At least, the Android version of Google Photos can do that. It's called the "Markup" tool and it's pretty simple.
Even if you know how to add text to photos with Google Photos, you should watch this short video because I add a very important little tip!

Have you been waiting for the next edition of Mrs. Geek's Guide to Google Photos? I had hoped to have it out before now, but it's not. There's still time to let me know what you hope to see in the book. You can just reply to this email, or read the article and leave a comment.
I have now set a launch date of May 1.
Meanwhile, check out my online course below.
