We’re all starting to chat the itch to spend some more time outside around the office.

There was little snow and many winter activities were cancelled over the past several…

Speed Up Your Fingers with Text Expansion With all the advances in computing and communications, it’s amazing that–after nearly 150 years!–we still use the keyboard layout from the world’s first practical typewriter for entering text into our Macs, iPhones, and iPads.

_Dear Friends,_ I am off to Daytona for the 75th Bike Week. We went out to the 75th anniversary of the Sturgis Bike Week so it is only appropriate for us to hit the one sort of in our neighborhood, too. We will be riding on our 2003 Victory motorcycles and trying to avoid any…

I have the pleasure of being able to not only work behind the scenes here at Small Dog, but also on the front line with our customers.
