Do you ever wish you could just take what you are viewing on your phone and push it to the tv? My first interactions with Chromecast were awesome due to this functionally.  It was the end of the night and Bruno Mars’s Uptown Funk had just come out. I was already onto the next single from the album Mystikal’s “Feel Right.” I was trying to tell everyone that this song was even better than “Uptown Funk.”  At the time we had just gotten a new tv and hooked up Chromecast. All I had to do was just click one icon and BOOOOOOOMMMM the funk was busting from my TV.

It’s also been helpful for client meetings with since Google Cast is built into chrome.  I have had perspective clients over before and it was instrumental in streaming a Google Slide presentation to the television.

The Command Center is also an amazing tool and widget central.  I can curate widgets with weather, my calendar, stock prices and news (via RSS).  The dashboard is instrumental for my mornings and is great to have on our bedroom TV so I can get a jumpstart on my day from the moment that I wake up.
