Just completed the first 8 lessons and find it reasonably comfortable to work with. Could do with a little more in the 'Hint' section. Took me a couple of goes to set up the array in lesson 5. I did it differently to you though: var days = ["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday"]; It seemed to work, although did not see that they were square brackets. Bring on email 2.

I love the RSS reader on the iPad, which lets me keep up with blogs, while away from my computer. Also, I use LogMeIn Ignition, to access my desktop and laptop computers, when I'm out of the office. Never did get the hang of the Numbers application, and haven't found any app that replaces Excel (could anything?) Bob, that’s a great cookbook — I have the paper version, not the iPad or iPhone.

As part of my preparation for going to school this fall, I needed a reference book for cooking. A chef at our local Sur La Table recommended Marc Bittman's How to Cook Everything, and I just discovered he has an app for both the iPhone and iPad. Have you found other uses for your iPad?

In this case, I must have hit Ctrl+A before all the data from the camera was showing in Windows Explorer, so it missed the last bunch of files. Those backup programs are probably smarter than I am, and they wait patiently before copying the files. @Dave, thanks — good advice!

There's Mozy, Carbonite, dropbox, skydrive, google docs, box.net... lots of choices. I know I'll be doing that (real soon now!). Deb,

You should really consider backing up your pictures (and all files??) to the cloud. There’s Mozy, Carbonite, dropbox, skydrive, google docs, box.net… lots of choices.

I know I’ll be doing that (real soon now!).
