Happy Anniversary (Sent from my iPad)

Today, March 21, my girlfriend and I celebrate our fifth anniversary. She is the love of my life, and I couldn’t be happier. She encouraged me when I was only getting started with MacStories, and she’s still here to listen to my crazy ideas about the site that I constantly try to explain to her. Some of them are good. Others suck and she is not afraid to tell me. That’s why I’m with her today. Happy anniversary.

As I am here typing this in Writing Kit, she is looking at an email I sent her with my attempt at drawing an anniversary card with Adobe Ideas. The app is good, my card is just plain awful. She smiled, appreciated the thought, and promptly made fun of my poor drawing skills. I have always been terrible at drawing. No iPad can change that.

But five years ago, could I have ever imagined a piece of glass with just one button would someday become the device to get my work done? A device that seamlessly changes from work tasks to, yes, sending anniversary cards? Not in my nerdiest dreams. Yet here it is. It did change something. The iPad is changing today – right now – the way people read, create, browse, play, listen. And how they share important moments.
