   I took pictures of all my old pictures and they are in Google photos. They are listed on the date that I took the pictures and they went into Google Photos. I would like to change the date and have them listed by the year they occurred. What episode did you talk about this?

   I have a galaxy S5, I use Google photos and love it with auto backup. There is still a category in my Gallery that says, Picassa, with the Picassa symbol, and 4,326 pics listed. I believe most of these photos are backed up already. Is there any way to check this before I delete this folder?

    I like your newsletter articles. However your focus tends to be on travellers and the U.S. Market. Therefore I am not sure. Also your TV will be in U.S. Time. Any thoughts?
    Best regards

      Paul, I hope you caught our articles on travels to UK (http://geeksontour.com/?p=9646). We teach about using technology to plan, preserve, and share your travels – but it applies equally to people who have non-travel related photos and stories to tell as well. The weekly show is all about using smartphones – not just for travel. Although the time may be inconvenient to watch the show live, the recordings are available on Youtube anytime.

    When I pressed #8 to watch the video #7 came up. I repeated it twice, and it still came up as #7.

      Thanks for letting us know. It’s fixed now.

    I like Chris’ new hair style. Yours is OK too Jim. 🙂

    That is good news. And I have good news of another kind. I got my Geeks on Tour fix today by watching the YouTube video “Picasa Collages” again for the 3rd or 4th time. So I guess I really don’t need to fly to Arizona this week after all.

    I’m on my way to surpassing Mrs. Geeks’ record number of collages created in Picasa. Today’s special one was eight grand kids surrounding a photo of myself when I was only 4 years old. I think there is a family resemblance. 🙂

    Uh, Oh. This could be a cold hard winter without The Geek’s Hangouts. Psst, hey Geeks, if you didn’t know, I sure will miss your weekly shows. 🙂

    • Chris Guld says:

      November 16, 2014 at 6:08 pm

      We’ll be back online for next week’s show!

23. Michael D. says:

    November 11, 2014 at 3:58 pm

    I sure hope your internet connection is a good one, when you get back in Arizona. If there are no weekly shows while you are there, I might have to change my plans to visit Florida to Phoenix instead. So I can drive up to Camp Verde for my Geeks on Tour weekly fix.

    Hey guys, great topic for this week’s show. However, having three guests was probably too many. I tune in to here what you have to say and your message got diluted by all the others. My opinion, for what it’s worth.

    Finally had the data available to watch all of the WDTBD videos. Gary and I picked up new Moto Xs last week and we are trying to be sure we get them working to the best possible advantage. Hope you are enjoying your SCUBA trip. Don’t think we’ll ever get another chance to take a dive.

    FYI, we had the opportunity to up our data usage to 40 per month at the same cost as we were previously paying for the 20G. I’m glad you didn’t have a problem with your grandfathered plan for unlimited.

    See you in Pomona?

    Hey Chris and Jim,

    I love your “What Does This Button Do” series!! Thank you so much. I have learned a lot. Have you considered doing an episode on Gnotes? I want to be able to create notes then access them on any device and to be able to find one note among many. I think Gnotes might be able to do this. I have sticky notes all over my desk! It is unsightly!!

    I also need to find an alternate for keeping track of all my user accounts, user names and passwords. My tablet would be a great place to do this because it goes with me most of the time. But then I would need to secure the list with a pass word. There is so much I would like to do with my Samsung Tab 2!

    I am looking forward to your next show!

    Thanks so very much, you two are a blessing!

    Priscilla

      Thanks Priscilla!
      I have not tried Gnotes – it looks interesting with how it coordinates with Gmail. Did you watch episode 13 of What Does This Button Do? That’s one where we talk about note-taking. Here’s the link: http://geeksontour.com/2014/09/what-does-this-button-do-13-taking-notes/

    I logged in and tried to get section #10 and #9 to come up and I got a no data for the down load. Why?

    What is URI?

    • Chris Guld says:

      September 9, 2014 at 2:17 pm

      I just checked and they seem to be working ok. Could it be a poor Internet connection? A URI is the same as URL, which is the Uniform Resource Locator, or web Address for any given web page. The URL for episode 10 for example is http://geeksontour.com/2014/09/weekly-show-10

    August 30, 2014 at 10:44 pm

    Could you explain how to use “Cut & Paste” on an Android (Nexus 7) tablet? I use the FireFox web browser and cannot seem to get copy & paste to work. Thanks.

    • Chris Guld says:

      August 31, 2014 at 12:18 am

      Great question, we will schedule that for tomorrow’s show. Meanwhile please watch this video: http://geeksontour.com/2012/04/mobl09-smartphone-copy-and-paste/login

    Why the s5 and not the 5 active?

    • Chris Guld says:

      August 31, 2014 at 12:12 am

      I believe the Active is an AT&T exclusive. We’re on Verizon.

    let me suggest a couple simple apps Sun Seeker lite . Identifies the sun position in relation to your current location throughout the day. Don’t really want sunrise coming in the bedroom window in the morning if we can avoid it.
    Second app roadtrippers

    • Chris Guld says:

      August 23, 2014 at 2:32 pm

      I am loving RoadTrippers! I wrote about it briefly in this article: http://geeksontour.com/2014/06/roadtripper/ But, there’s so much more. I’m thinking of replacing Streets and Trips with RoadTripper. The only drawback is that it is web only.

    I am trying to keep up, summer is so busy. I feel that I am learning so much and you both do a great job of explaining. Thank you
