New Phone, Who Dis? – The Google Pixel 9a

Leave a comment

It’s a new phone day for me. We have been loyal Google Pixel users since the original model. This is the 9a that is replacing my 7a. My wife has the 8a, and we have had other models over the years. We usually upgrade every couple of years because we have Google Fi as our phone provider. We like all the good stuff these phones have to offer, such as its camera and call quality. The Pixel integrates with the Google ecosystem seamlessly. I suppose my next phone will be the 11a, and that should be in 2027. Along with the phone comes a new holster case for it.

Attention Google Domain Customers, WordPress Has Got You Covered

Leave a comment

If you have a domain registered through Google Domains (which is shutting down) you can now transfer them to WordPress for a good deal. I just did that for a family domain that I have and it was a straightforward process and WordPress is going to pay for the registration fees for the first year. I am a long-time customer of WordPress and find them to be innovative and responsive. If you want your own personalized address you can’t go wrong with WordPress.

New Phone, Who Dis? #TeamPixel 5a With 5G

2 Comments

We have been Team Pixel for years. I have owned the Google Pixel 1, 2, 3a and now the 5a with 5G. I think these are terrific phones that won’t break your bank. Even the Pixel 6 is priced well for both versions.

Android is a great phone OS with a lot of features including a rock-solid camera and the ability to use all of the Google products such as Drive and Photos at your fingertips. I am impressed with the 5a so far and look forward to capturing and sharing my world and sharing it with you with this new phone.

If you haven’t heard of Google Fi which is their mobile phone service, check it out, The pricing and features are really good.

As Seen At My Endocrinologist Office

I saw this at my endocrinologist office this morning. So many try to self diagnose what ails them these days. There’s a point to going to the doctor if one can afford it.

I got a new phone yesterday. The Google Pixel 2 XL is a great device and I got an incredible deal on it at Walmart. The reason I chose this instead of the Pixel 3 is the price and is still a big step up from the Pixel XL I have had the past couple of years. When I got my first pixel I anticipated upgrading to this phone anyway and the 3 was a surprise. So my posts will be just as nerdy and pictures will look amazing. Google has it going on with phones these days, all the cool nerds have these.
