    Looking back at 2020

    by W. Andrew Powell December 31, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell December 31, 2020

    This year was a tough one, wasn’t it? We all have some complicated thoughts about 2020. For me, it taught me a few things, and made me feel very fortunate, even though it was a year without travel, major events, or big family get togethers.

    Put the luggage down and pick up a hobby

    by W. Andrew Powell November 23, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell November 23, 2020

    My wife and I love to plan things, dreaming of the next time we can take a trip, get in the car, and just get away for a few days. The last eight months have been something else though, haven’t they?

    One year with the iPhone 11 | 20 of my favourite photos

    by W. Andrew Powell October 13, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell October 13, 2020

    What a difference a year makes. Since last fall, I’ve tested and reviewed a lot of phones, and I’ve taken thousands of photos with all of them. There’s lots I could say about each phone, but I’m still happy to keep coming back to the indispensable iPhone 11.

    Hands on with the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra | Photos & 8K video

    by W. Andrew Powell August 14, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell August 14, 2020

    The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra arrives next Friday, and I’ve honestly been geeking out while I’m testing it for my review next week.

    What does the future hold for North x Google?

    by W. Andrew Powell June 30, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell June 30, 2020

    North announced this morning that they’ve been acquired by Google, and it’s possibly the most interesting news that I’ve heard so far this year in tech.

    Oh, Canada!

    by W. Andrew Powell June 9, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell June 9, 2020

    Over the last 20 years I’ve been doing my own thing, and there have been highs and lows, but I’m feeling very happy and fortunate to see one success that stands out today, and it seems like a good time to celebrate since Canada Day is coming up.

    Local road trips are your best bet for 2020 travel

    by W. Andrew Powell June 8, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell June 8, 2020

    What did you expect this year? Not this, I imagine, and if you were planning a holiday, there’s certainly some good news ahead, but there’s also a new reality we need to embrace.

    George A. Romero, cult films, and the Time Warp

    by W. Andrew Powell May 19, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell May 19, 2020

    It’s hard to overstate what George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead did for horror. He was ahead of his time. The films helped set a style, tone, and visual language for what we imagine when we think of zombies, and he also used the films to talk about social issues.

    DJI Mavic Air 2 | Love at first flight

    by W. Andrew Powell May 11, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell May 11, 2020

    The DJI Mavic Air 2 is a real surprise, and it’s gotten me excited to get out more for some spring droning. If you only expected a few updates from the original, you’re in for a real treat with the new drone.

    First impressions with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite

    by W. Andrew Powell April 24, 2020
    by W. Andrew Powell April 24, 2020

    The days have been different, but technology has been impressively helpful during these strange times. I’m streaming more, taking guitar lessons online, working, and at times, trying to be creative too.
