I really like having the Philips Hue light bulbs in the house. It’s cool to have the lights set so that when I wake up in the morning they are on already for me to have my breakfast and get ready for work.

The most used tool would be the DragonDictate application which gives me excellent dictation capabilities. I never have to write anything with the keyboard if I don’t want to.

iOS 11 Beta 3 – I couldn’t resist it. It seems to be a fairly simple procedure to register for the Apple beta program to get iOS 11 Beta 3.
