discuss I’m doing all my domaining with a tablet. What about you?

i always found domaining required more than just domaining. Artwork etc my tool of choice is Ideapad just bought my fouth one.

I think that is great. As we get older, we need to take care about things like posture, etc...while young, I was able to sit hours and hours in front of computer....not any more, it is not healthy ...so devices like tables are very useful imo

Exactly.

Sitting too much makes my back sore. Half-sitting in a sofa or bed is fine though.

With proper chairs you be lounging.
You have to try first, don't buy on the internet.

Brought my first iMac in 2008, finally a machine I could count on. Today I have iMac in home office, living room and bedroom. Can't imagine to work on small screen.

Not only can I not imagine not working on an iMac, I can't imagine working on a...PC.

PC is better than Mac.
Mac brings 8% of Apple's revenue.
Apple doesn't focus on making the best computers.
Macbooks suck when it comes to speed and power.
iMacs can be powerful if you spend $18,000.
PC wins.

Yeah, no. I like screens. Big screens. Telephones were meant for talking. People that like to squint, or looking at small items, well, maybe they're used to it. Looking down and all.. squinting to make sure they're aiming properly.

^ : just joshing : < : kind of :

Desktop for me. Its nice, because instead of spending $500 every two weeks on a new squint, I can keep my 23" of visual real estate and perhaps replace about $50 every 5 years for a new part.

For me, half-sitting on a sofa or bed, I would have though would have been much worse posture than sitting at a table in a proper chair/seat.

I think it’s very individual.

From half-sitting I get no sore back and tired shoulders whatsoever. However, I might get a little sleepy in the sofa occasionally. That’s why I am drinking more than a liter of coffee per day.

Off topic and general: Deadlift (moderate weight) is great for lower back health and face pulls with ropes are great for shoulder health (if desk work have caused you to have forward rounded shoulders, which might cause pinched nerves and pain).

Most often said by people with very little Mac experience.

I have great office chairs. Still I think it’s not ideal for anyone to sit down working for 50-60 hours a week, year after year after year...

Are you mainly using your computer, your tablet, or your smartphone for your domaining?

Got 3 towers, lots of wires and 5 monitors...all pc...and bought about 20 old school keyboards from a local university a couple years ago...I am addicted to the sound and feel of those heavy keyboards!

iMac only

Using Apple Watch mainly.

It's strange how we get into long term habits. I only used laptops for close to 10 years, then my son got me into occasional gaming a few years back, so now I use my desktop almost exclusively for domains & work.

It used to seem like such a burden to work in the office, now it feels like the opposite.

I have become terribly attached with my laptop that whenever I'm using my mobile phone, it's usually like I'm not doing anything meaningful until I switch to my laptop

Spend most of my time at work which doesn't consist of using a computer.

So mostly phone then when at home laptop.

I used my iMac for all my domaining business before, but now I’ve switched to an iPad. So instead of sitting at my desk with my computer, I’m now semi-sitting in my sofa with my tablet. Still, I try to work the same amount of hours per day.

It seems to work very well. Most of the websites I use are adapted for mobile platforms nowadays.

What about you? Are you mainly using your computer, your tablet, or your smartphone for your domaining? Or a mix of devices?

Very cool. Someday for me perhaps. I wish I could use a tablet or a phone but honestly I cant operate effectively without a large screen and a keyboard.

Same here . Working mindset awakes when I seat in front of my laptop.

been using a 15.6 laptop since 2010 for eveything ( before domaining ) and it was fine
lately i upgraded to Surface laptop 13.5 , I miss my 15.6 screen though
I miss some of the columns on expireddomains . net , i hate that I have to scroll left and right everytime

I feel like it's impossible to do domaining from a tablet or phone because the mouse is a lot faster than touching ,
I can't do nothing unless i have 10-30 tabs open from 2 browsers :\ with 5 -10 different programs windows minimized

also I can't get my fingers of the ctrl+c and ctrl +v buttons , to see compared sales etc,,,it would take for ever to do that on smartphones

tried to do all the work half set on the sofa , struggled dut to the lack of neck support :\

I just did a bunch of updates on many of my websites using my dual screen iMac Pro. I had multiple windows open across multiple programs - Cyberduck Dreamweaver also three different browsers Chrome Safari Firefox to view occasionally the results to see how it rendered and to access Google codes from my G accounts. There’s just no way I could’ve done the work easily if at all on a tablet.

Yesterday because I didn’t feel like going to my desktop I did much of the same work on my MacBook Pro. It was definitely easier and went faster on the dual monitor desktop.

Sometimes I’ll be using Final Cut Pro or Photoshop during these sorts of graphical tasks.

I’m now pecking this NP post away on my iPhone. iPhone isn’t good for much more than relatively simple tasks. You can’t even adjust the size of imgur images on their app - only on the web version.


If you’re doing everything on a tablet or smart phone then you’re probably not doing much.

I use laptop while in office, and sometime in home. And smartphone while outside office and home...
I think no problem with my Samsxxx smartphone because it can be turned to laptop view.
Cheers...

90% is done on my iphone

Desktop.

(The only tablets I use for domaining are aspirin. )

I am doing domaining on smartphone only.
My laptop is down since last 2 -3 months.
