Little things

Sitting on a plane and feeling “G” as the plane takes off, getting a calendar appointment notification at the due time regardless of which device I’m using and what device I added the appointment to…literally telling my phone to “wake me up at 5:30am”…dragging my files to my dropbox folder before running out of the house, and having access to the same file... »
