Left Handedness in Technology and Gadgets

Since i'm using more of my left hand in doing things, i noticed lately that i'm more comfy in doing the clicking and "right-clicking" of the touchpad using my right. When i switched it to my left, it kind of gave me this feeling of slowness, bringing a tick for me to use my right again.

Then, when i text single-handedly using the iphone, my right hand does it in a breeze, tried using my left and my thumb cannot reach those corners whenever i use it to tap, same is true when i get to slide using my palm, in conclusion, my right hand does better, way versatile when it comes to gadgets.

Now, why am i saying this? I'm currently investigating the relativity of left-handedness in the present technology age today. Does it follow the rule that when you're left-handed since birth, you get to carry it all the way through as you age?

It's like a pair of scissors, most often than not, the available scissors are for the right handed people, us, left-handed folks are but to settle on what's available, thus, we end up using our right-hand in cutting, until such time that we tend to practice it without difficulty and thus forgetting that the left-hand must do it.

How Save Battery in iOS7?

Battery juice plays a vital role in smartphones, it's the blood and oxygen of every gadget.

In my 6 days of using iOS 7, there's no denying that it's a battery vampire.

I've been checking blogs, news and comments on how to mitigate this, so far, these are the top two drivers in patching this issue.

1. Turn On the "Reduce Motion" option under Settings - General - Accessibility 



Somehow, this shiny parallax effect drains your batt easily.



2. Adjust your screen brightness. Don't set it to auto-adjust. Maintain the slider at the minimum (closest to the left).
