Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 25/01/2017
» Research company Gartner claims that 20% of organisations will use smartphones in place of physical access cards by 2020. A few days before reading that, I had been in the new head office of COM7, where staff are signed in and out using iBeacon and a smartphone app. This also controls access to specific areas. I was attending an Open Day at the building in Sanphawut Road, Bang Na.

Artistic output for photographs on iOS devices
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 20/01/2016
» Although I prefer working in Aperture, I have softened my views on Photos on the Mac. It is much improved from its first release, but there is still room for improvement. I use it mainly for iPhone photographs synchronised to the Mac via iCloud.

Contain yourself, the new iPhone is here
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 04/11/2015
» Apple made a lot of money last quarter and is on for a record year. Those predicting lower sales in China were utterly wrong. Wall Street is ringing its hands because (they say) this sort of growth cannot be sustained and Apple will fail. I guess eventually, the Sun will stop shining too, but not yet. Predictions are usually pinned on share price and growth; but Apple's products, and profits, are better indicators.

Return of the Harman Kardon Esquire mini speaker
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 24/12/2014

Some excellent apps for photography on the iPhone
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 23/04/2014

Big Macs and size
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 19/03/2014
» First, a correction. When discussing my stolen Mac two weeks ago, I called it a PowerMac. It was in fact a 12-inch G4 Powerbook. I had big Macs on the brain as I had been looking at Apple’s latest Mac Pro which has just arrived in Bangkok.

Where to buy Apple devices in Thailand
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 19/02/2014
» Buying Apple devices is considerably easier than it used to be. Years ago, Macs (there were no iPads or iPhones of course) were only used by a small number of people in Thailand, but in recent years prices have gone down, there are more devices and the number of potential customers here has risen considerably. I taught a class of computer engineering students recently and saw that more than 80% of the computers were Macs, with a couple of iPads as well. Some of those Macs were running Windows as well as OS X. A while back, Walt Mossberg called the iMac the best PC ever reviewed.
