Each episode and post helps you get the most out of your Google-powered devices and apps.

It’s a new year and a new Pixel Power Podcast. What’s new? For one, I set a timer for 20 minutes and do my best to stick to it. Get it? 20 for 2020? There’s also a new web site for the podcast at the original URL: https://www.pixelpowerpodcast.com. The new look comes from the website’s move from Google Sites to GitHub pages. The design is minimal but more functional and easier to maintain.
Some things stay the same. You will still find a main topic (in this episode I discuss pixel and Google related holiday gifts given and received), the Addendum segment where I talk about living a pixel-powered life, and the same quality show notes you’ve come to expect. It’s now in a more compact version. I hope you like the changes. Be sure to use the feedback options (described at the bottom of the page) to let me know what you think.
“Hey Google, set timer for 20 minutes.”

There was a whole lot of Google gift this past Christmas.
Google Hub Max - 10 inch HD screen, massive stereo sound upgrade with 3 inch sub, duo camera, nest cam, face match with pesonalized home screen. Replaced a Lenovo Smart Display which went to my home office to replace a Google Home Hub that went to my work office.
Lenovo Alarm Clock - Stylish gift for wife to replace an echo Dot. Focus on clock features but includes Google Assistant.
Odds, ends, and living a pixel-powered life.
Google sending maps timeline to users and I spent my entire year in the east from Toronoto to Florida. Here’s mine:
