Have you lost skills to technology?

  • Navigation.
  • Memorizing phone numbers.
  • Communicating with strangers.
  • Mental math.

Thorin Klosowski looks at these lost skills in this Lifehacker piece, and gives tips on how to get them back.


Here’s another way to combine old school methods with new technology. Post-it parent company, 3M, developed a new mobile app that let’s you capture individual Post-it notes or a whole wall of them, organize them, and share them with an iPhone or iPad.

I downloaded the free app (which requires IOS 8) and did some testing with it, but my review wouldn’t be as good as this one Sarah Perez wrote for TechCrunch.
