Heat Wave Kills Electronics

By SoftwareGirl

 

Do what you can over the next several weeks to keep as cool as possible!  That goes for your electronics too.  As the heat wave in the US continues to move East and get even hotter, remember to keep your electronics out of the heat and do not leave them in your vehicle.  That includes your GPS device, cell phone, laptops, all your electronics.  The excessive heat can warp the circuit boards, keyboards, and the screens.

Leaving electronics in the trunk of your vehicle will expose your equipment to temperatures in excess of 115 degrees.  If you find yourself out with your electronics, just take them with you.  It’s much less hassle than having to repair or replace and reprogram everything.

If you have sprinkler system or alarm system circuitry in your garage and the temperatures are creeping over 110 degrees, it’s time to think about moving a fan into the garage to attempt to cool things down there too.

Venturing out to the pool to keep cool?  Don’t leave your iPad or laptop on a metal table as that will cause issues as well.  It’s best to keep the electronics inside where it is much cooler.  Think cool thoughts everyone and we’ll get through this!

Turn your iPhone into a credit card terminal

By SoftwareGirl

Are you a business that makes money transactions on the run?  Perhaps you’re a street vendor or rental car agent or someone who would like to take credit card transactions where there is limited resources to set up a credit card processing terminal.  You can now swipe your credit card using an add on piece of hardware or simply type the credit card number into your iPhone and process the transaction.  This even works on the Edge network which has the slowest data network that the iPhone will handle!

The best part of this is that the information is NOT stored on the iPhone.  So why do we need an office anymore?!  I’m way impressed with this.  We’ve come a long way from the days when everyone went to work in a cubicle farm and spent their days on conference calls in an 8X10 cell…er, I mean cubicle.

So what do you think?  Would you use this application in your business?  Would this help you?  Do you have experience with this application?  Let me know in your comments below.
