The Amazon Echo vs. the Dot vs. the Tap – Which to Choose?

The question of the day: what’s the difference between the Amazon Echo and the Dot, and which is best for me? We have been experimenting with combinations of these Amazon home assistants since they first debuted. While size and price are the obvious differences, there are a few other qualities that make the Echo, Dot, and Tap best suited to different situations.

Security for the Amazon Echo and Google Home

A lot of us gave and received Amazon Echoes for the holidays, and now in the news, there’s a story about police trying to use it as evidence in a murder investigation in Arkansas. So are we having buyer’s (or recipient’s) remorse? Most people are rightly squeamish about the idea of listening devices taking up residence in their homes. But the fact is that we’ve already given up privacy in exchange for convenience, over and over. Do you browse all websites in “incognito” mode? Do you let Amazon and Google track your history, or record your life happenings on Facebook? Do you have a piece of electrical tape over your webcam? (We admit that we do for that last one. And we’re not alone—Mark Zuckerberg does it too.

Web Design for Lawyers

One of the websites in our current project list is for a local attorney. Over the years, we’ve done several for lawyers in the Dallas area. One thing we’ve noticed is that it’s not hard to exceed the standards set by the competition; there are a lot of sub-par law websites out there. If you google “family law dallas,” you’ll see that the first sites in the organic search results (not Google ads) are fairly dated looking and could use some improvements to their data architecture. But what’s even more interesting is that there aren’t as many lawyers with websites as their should be—and there’s just no excuse for that. We can help you set up a website from scratch, and it doesn’t have to be torture.
