Just Spencer Tumblr. Edition

As Tumblr. becomes more popular, the more I become fascinated with it. For those of you who don’t know what Tumblr. is, Tumblr. is another blogging platform that allows people to follow your posts. However, the layout and design of Tumblr. makes it more of a community/social network than a blogging platform.

Due to how popular Tumblr. is, I have decided to expand Just Spencer over to Tumblr.. Now this does not mean I am deleting this site and posting only on Tumblr.. This simply means that you will also be able to read my posts on Tumblr. To follow me on Tumblr., visit justspencer.tumblr.com.

With The Release of The iPhone 5 Comes Rumors of The Next Generation iPhone

Before we start this post, we want to verify that all of these rumors are rumors and are not official designs, concepts, or dates that Apple Inc. has released.

As people start upgrading their “outdated” iPhone 3GS, 4, and 4S to the brand new iPhone 5, rumors are being started about the next generation iPhone. Rumors of new colors, a new screen, and many other rumors. Also, with rumors of a new iPhone comes one debate…When will the new iPhone be Released?

One of the most popular rumors as of right now has to do with the new iPhone being available in more than just black and white. There have been many rumors that the next generation iPhone will be available in pink, yellow, blue, and, of course, the typical white and black.

When Apple Inc. released the iPhone 5, they changed the traditional 3.5 inch screen that Apple has used on all of their past iPhones and iPod Touches to a new 4 inch screen. Never before has Apple ever released an iPhone with two different screen size options. However, there is reason to believe that with the release of the next generation iPhone there will be two different screen size options.

When the iPhone 5 was released, one of the changes was the technology Apple uses for the touch screen. This technology, called cell touch technology, allows for a thinner display by combining the touch sensor and the screen all into one panel. However, in doing this, there has been an issue which causes interference problems with the touchscreen. Also, combining the two panels into one has caused a recent supply shortage.

Now onto the big debate, which you may have your own opinion on. When will the next generation iPhone be released? Well, just like all other rumors, no one actually knows when the new iPhone will be released. There have been many dates thrown out there, but most people are stuck on the new iPhone being released sometime in June of 2013.

Again, all of these designs, concepts, and dates are unofficial and nothing will be confirmed until Apple actually releases the new iPhone.

A Great Way to Start The Day

When I wake up, the other side of the bed is cold. I force myself to get up and answer the phone. I then hang up and slowly shuffle downstairs to where the great start to my day begins.

I was not expecting the day to go as well as it already has! After waking up, I went downstairs and had an amazing breakfast…a chocolate filled croissant and a peppermint mocha…Yummm! I then went on to check my email. My inbox was full of emails about my blog. People liking posts, subscribing to my blog, and many more other things. I then came across an email from The Daily Post @ WordPress.com. I started to read the daily prompt when I stopped and thought to myself, “This prompt seems very familiar…Where have I seen this before?” (Only if I had kept on reading!)

I then went on to check my stats, and yet again, I was shocked. There was a sudden spike in views. I was very confused, but at the same time very happy! It was only the morning and I had already received more views than I normally do on a regular day. “Where are all these views coming from?” I kept asking myself.

I then went back to my email when all of a sudden, something stood out…my name with a link to my blog! Something finally clicked in my brain. The Daily Post had chosen one of my prompts for the daily prompt and now people were coming to see my blog! I just sat there staring at my screen. I still couldn’t believe everything that was going on.

Well, since I came up with the prompt, I thought I better go ahead and participate in today’s prompt. The prompt was to take the first sentence from your favorite book and make it the first sentence of your post. That is why the first sentence of this post is bolded. The sentence is the first sentence from one of my many favorite books, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

I hope all of you who are new or returning visitors to my blog enjoy reading and looking at all of my posts!

iPhone Quick Tips: Removing/Adding Safari, Camera, etc.

This iPhone Quick Tip is not as big of a deal as some others, but you can have some fun with it. Today we will be teaching you how to use restrictions to add or remove safari, camera, and other applications from the iPhone.

1.) Go to Settings, then  click on General

2.) Then look for the tab called “Restrictions”…click on it

3.) You will then need to type in your device’s password

4.) There you go…You can now turn on and off certain apps.

One fun trick you can play on your friends is turning off the camera (or safari) and watching them freak out because it looks like it disappeared!
