About Today: What Tech to Take on Your Travels

About


Lots of people will say, "Are you crazy? Why bring any tech on vacation! You are supposed to relax. Turn that thing off! And why are you in my cabana?" Well, first of all, I want to remember the vacation and second there are wolves outside. Now scootch over and don't hog all the covers.

Great Travel Tech and Gear
Good news! We have a new site dedicated to covering this very topic. More of us take tech with us now and David Dean will let us know what's good and what's... well, not so good. Check it out.

Should You Use Your iPad as a Camera?
I guess it's a little weird using your iPad as a camera, but who am I to judge you, weirdo? Actually, how weird could it be if there are this many apps available?

How to Copy a DVD to Your iPad
Sometimes bringing something from home can make little and big kids alike feel more comfortable. No need to bring a DVD player along when you can copy movies to your iPad, however.

Tiny Travel Accessories You Really Need
Of all the items listed here (they're all cheap, too), the least techy is unarguably the most important. You might think it's a little screwy to suggest it, but when you are stuck in a vineyard during the zombie apocolypse you'll be the hero. Well, not in a saving-the-world kinda way. Still, a hero.
