A Quick Word From Yours Truly


Hi, welcome to PJ's blog.

If you've checked out the "About Me" bit you'll see I'm a keen amateur photographer who enjoys all things digital. I mostly like photographing plants and landscapes as they are easy targets ;-) I used to work in Software which sounds more exciting than it is but am now officially a Snr. Project Planner having changed jobs after almost 25yrs in Software. I sometimes wish I could work in photography but that would probably become boring if I did it day in and day out. I used to sponsor a wolf called Luna until she sadly passed away, and love all things "wolfy". Anyhow enjoy the blog and hopefully I'll manage to keep it up to date with what I've been doing and my favourite things!

The trials & tribulations of Blogger to Facebook!

This is a bit of a test post I guess really as I've been trying to figure out how to get my Blogger feeds back onto my Facebook timeline. Not as easy as it once was and until this goes live I still won't know if it works...

Anyway assuming it does maybe some of you out there can solve an issue I have with my smartphone battery. Ever since the Jellybean update my battery seems to be draining far more quickly. Maybe its me but I used to just put it on charge overnight whereas now I'm having to plug it in when I get home or even at work using the USB lead. I've tried various battery apps to no avail and I've played with turning off settings such as wifi, data, app syncing and haptic feedback. Thing is with all these off the phone ceases to be useful ;-) Since being home and having charged it up its sitting pretty stable with wifi on, auto app sync on and haptic feedback back on in the keyboard app only. Wondering if keep switching these on/off uses up more juice than just leaving them on? I have also switched off Latitude reporting my location, has anyone used that and found it hogging resources? Final thing was to limit the number of screens to two thus hopefully minimizing switching between them. If anyone has any thoughts please post on my Facebook page.
