Question For my Blogger friends


OK this is away from an ordinary post but I'm really in a limbo here about a device to buy.

I have a desktop computer and a large laptop computer. I used to have a netbook which I really loved to carry with me and blog from. This is the key work "Blog".  I fell while holding it the other day and broke it beyond repair.

You all know how relaxing it can be to find a quiet place a blog with your own personal little computer. I loved my netbook and I mainly only used it for blogging. I have an IPhone for apps.


I'm debating on getting another netbook or small laptop or a Tablet. Probably not an IPad because its too expensive, but there are alot of nice tablets on the market today and the netbooks seem to becoming extinct.

Here is my question and hope to get some helpful answers.
Netbook or Tablet.

I kinda want a tablet because they look to be so portable and handy but how does blogging work? Do any of you blog from a tablet? How awkward is it to type alot of words on one when the screen lays flat?  Does the screen look the same as the live view from the reading pane of a regular computer? I use Blogger and just wonder how friendly it is to use these devices.

Help.
Thanks.

  1. Sorry, but I'm gonna vote iPad. Love, love, love mine. I don't have any experience with the tablets. So I can't be of any help to you on this. Eager to see what you decide on.

  2. Hi Lisa, I normally use my desktop but whilst away I use my netbook with Blogger. It's fine for me. Anyway, I'm just stopping by to say how delightful your blog is. Thanks so much for sharing. I have recently found your blog and am now following you, and will visit often. Please stop by my blog and perhaps you would like to follow me also. Have a wonderful day. Hugs, Chris

  3. I use an ipad. I would highly recommend it. I know it is a little more, but I think it can do a lot more than other tablets. I use an app called Blogsy to blog on my ipad and love it! I barely ever use my netbook anymore. Good luck!

  4. Also- you could consider an ipad mini and get a keyboard for it. That is slightly cheaper.

  5. Thanks y'all. I just need to actually spend some time really looking and feeling an iPad or tablet. But my mind is leaning toward another netbook since I loved mine. I heard the cheaper tablets are real slow. I know iPods are the best though. I have to make my mind up before I go on vacation . I just commented this with my iPhone . Ha.
