Review: Clear Case for iPhone 15 Pro Max – Thumbs Down

Reading Time: < 1 minute

This is the shortest review I have ever written. I just bought an Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max, a big step from my iPhone XR. I will review it soon, but I want to alert people about the Apple clear case for it. Don’t get it if you have dry hands like I do or if you don’t want to risk the phone sliding onto the floor. The case for the iPhone XR had a rubbery border, so it was comfortable to grip. I keep the phone in my shirt pocket and I am uncomfortable taking it out.

The case is probably fine, but its hard construction makes it very slippery on a smooth surface – mine slid off the end of my bed, which has a satin-like duvet cover. No damage was done, but I asked other friends with this new phone about their case. I received one recommendation.

I have just ordered the case below from Amazon (affiliate link), which is not as rigid and is half the cost of the Apple case. Fingers crossed.

Example of Nationality Schema

Reading Time: < 1 minute

I am trying to get a Knowledge Panel for my name, but that’s another story. One suggested factor that helps this goal is having structured data tags, as documented at archive.org. The specific schema Type is Person. There are many published examples of this Type, but I could not find anything useful for adding the nationality of the person.

Example of Nationality Schema

    "nationality": {
        "@type": "Country",
        "name": "Australia",
        "sameAs": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia"
    },

Example of alumniOf Schema

I saw others showing the name of the institution against alumniOf, but this property does not take a textual value directly. This is how it should be done.

"alumniOf": {
    "@type": "OrganizationRole",
    "alumniOf": {
        "@type": "CollegeOrUniversity",
        "name": "Deakin University",
    },
    "startDate": "1997"
},

Take a look at the tags on my other page About Ash Nallawalla using the tool at ClassyScySchema.org.
