  • Awesome Ideas for Photograph and Scanning

    Derrick developed a wonderful method to scan albums of family photos to support finding the individual images in the future. It took me a bit to find the archived podcast but glad I did.

  • Derrick Does Another "Meaty" Podcast!

    The podcasts are always good but I had to comment that if your using power banks, this episode is going to get you thinking about your power alternatives.

    Now my decision is 300 or 1000. Good episode Derek.
