#howiwork: ChromeOS Tablet as a Second Screen

I am finding the Lenovo Chromebook Duet with Lenovo USI Stylus to be the perfect second device. It can serve as a:

• notetaking/bullet journal (I use OneNote for this)

• second screen during Teams calls to allow for seeing content being presented on my laptop and the participants gallery on the tablet (I join without sound using Teams Android app)

• extending my laptop desktop when completing projects that require more screen real estate (I use Spacedesk with Windows app on laptop and Android app on tablet )

Below is an example of how I use landscape screen orientation for taking handwritten notes. My intent with this is to take advantage of the research around the efficacy of handwritten notes versus typing for information processing.

• ~1200 miles of exercise (walking/jogging/biking/hiking)

I am still here...

So...I haven't made a post on this blog in two years. Hard to believe it's been that long. Would you like to know what I've been up to? If I get at least one person to make a comment to this post, then I will write a longer one with more details! Otherwise, it's probably not worth my time :) Cheers all!
