Yup! Beautiful iPad, wonderful iPad.

Oops! Sorry, was I going overboard?

I thought this story on Gizmodo was heartwarming. Just goes to show that any kid can pick up a tablet and run with it. I know it's not an iPad but who cares. It's a tablet and that's all they cared about.

Yes, I thought that was a lovely idea although I was assuming they had access to electric? Now if they were solar powered. Wow the hot African sun would be perfect.

I went through a similar thought process.

OMG

My home town is finally green! Maps has been corrected in this area. My faith has been restored. Thank goodness. Took them long enough.

That's interesting, my location is also now in colour and as clear as it was in the old maps app.

Personally I think they handled this pretty quickly as I'm sure that Somerset and Kent wouldn't have been right at the top of their priorities list.

Oh? You too. I was checking to see when hubby was coming home on find my iphone and the map was green. It has been grey since the IOS 6 update. A big slab of grey and dorset was okay and the west of somerset was a green blur. Couldn't see anything. Very quick. I have been sending corrections when I could so hopefully this helped. Salisbury cathedral is still showing its in two places though. Depending on where you are. Eiffel Tower is still a squashed piece of metal. Oops!

They finished this junction off too. When Apple Maps first saw daylight it showed up as a construction site, although it had been open for several months.









It's the Anthony Henday Drive/Stony Plain Road junction in Edmonton.

That's just great. Looks like all that overtime is working out for some of us.

Some species of tree in the UK are under threat.

We may lose our ash trees to a wind-borne fungus.

Now there is a breaking story that our oak trees may be threatened.

It's so sad, and it reminds me of the spread of Dutch Elm disease which wiped out the UK Dutch Elms in the early 1970's.
