My family is really into Thanksgiving, which I’ve always liked as a holiday. Turkey, desserts, football, family, what’s not to like? This year, however, my kid sister was complaining that we should skip eating turkey because it has an abnormally high amount of “triptofan” [ed: it’s actually spelled tryptophan]. What is tryptophan and why should we avoid it?
Hello Mr. Taylor. The other kids in my class say that every country celebrates Independence Day on July 4th and that it’s a global holiday, but I don’t think that’s right. Does every country really celebrate July 4th or are they just wrong?
I’ve become a big fan of using Siri for dictation on my iPhone, rarely typing in messages any more. I’d love the same capability on my MacBook Air, but it’s not running iOS and doesn’t have Siri. Can I use voice dictation anyway on a Mac OS X system?
I saw your article from a while back on how to move messages into specific tabs on Gmail [see Organize email by tabs in Gmail] but am a bit confused because I don’t see the same tabs you do. What’s up and how can I add new tabs to my tabbed user interface in Google Mail / Gmail?
I want to add Canadian holidays to my iCal calendar, but rather than enter them all myself, I’m wondering if there’s a public place where I can find a calendar already set up that I can just copy? Are there iCal calendar directories online, and if so, where would I find them?
This is driving me crazy: since my iPhone 5s is always on and online and since I’m running the Facebook app and it’s usually active on the phone, I always show up as available for online chat even when I’m far away from the device. What I’d like is to never have the iPhone Facebook app show me as on chat. How can I change this?
I’m getting used to the new tabs in Gmail and it’s pretty good, but every so often it decides that somethig I want in my regular inbox should actually go into the forums or promotions tab. So I often don’t find it for hours or even a day or more. Not so good. Is there a way I can redirect mis-filed incoming mail in Google Mail?
Is it possible to do Google searches through voice input on my computer? My sister is a terrible typist and gets very frustrated while searching for information and I’m tempted to buy a dictation system to help her out. But is there just an easy way to speak and have Google search?
