Since I use Google Calendar as an extension to my practice management software, I need an Android calendar app that can synchronize back into the Google framework.

ABA Journal Poll: 53% of Lawyers Don’t Use Apps
Tucked down in the lower right hand portion of the ABA Journal’s website, next to a scholarly picture of Bryan Garner, is this poll: Out of curiosity, I took the poll. The results – all 330 of them – shocked me. There it is, in some solemn shade of blue, the evidence that… Continue Reading
How to: Find the Missing Apps
Recently I had a conversation with a friend about factory resetting his device. He’s having trouble downloading the Android 4.1 update for his Samsung Galaxy S III, and one forum fix I found was to factory reset, then attempt the update. Factory reset usually cures these kinds of issues, among others, and it’s often a… Continue Reading
How to: Stop “nAPPing” and be “hAPPy”
In my previous post on this subject, I discussed the realities of being an Android app whore. The truth is, each of us is guilty at some point of seeking, installing, and abandoning “the next best thing.” I have pages of “My Apps” in Google Play as proof of my Android app addiction, and my… Continue Reading
Android App Review: Tawkon
There are dozens of reports about the harmful effects of cell phone radiation exposure. Obviously, the more you use your cell phone for conversations, the greater chance you have of exposing yourself to harmful radiofrequency waves.

Well, I’m giving a double dose plus one of two-for-the-price-of-free, and introducing five apps I think you have to… Continue Reading
Best Android Apps for Outdoor Activities
Summer in Oklahoma is like sending yourself to hell, then pouring a molten lava bath and sitting in it. Needless to say, I (since I’m slightly “hefty”) don’t do too many things out-of-doors that don’t involve a lake, a pool, or a waterpark. That said, during any month that is not June, July, August, and half… Continue Reading
Pirated Android Apps
There was a recent poll over at Android Central asking whether their readers had ever pirated an Android app. I this would be a great question, especially for lawyers, so I though I’d copy it over here. [poll id="4"]… Continue Reading
The Droid Lawyer Goes Mobile: Day 1
As you know, I’m taking an extended family vacation and driving from our home in Oklahoma City to my parent’s home in California. In sum, we’ll likely spend a lot of time “on the road” in close, cramped quarters. That said, I’m also going to be trying to get responses to two big motions out the door.… Continue Reading
How Google Might Change the Office Magazine
There isn’t a dentist, doctor, or lawyer’s office that doesn’t have a smattering of old magazines cluttering up the waiting area. Okay, for you literalists, I’m sure there’s an office somewhere devoid of magazines, but I can’t think of any. The truth is, magazines are an important way for us “important” people to tell our “less-than-important”… Continue Reading
