I firmly believe that technology is for everyone, no matter how daunting it seems to be, and here I will be writing about the hardware and software that should matter to you. I am a technology journalist and author who has devoted nearly two decade to examining technological trends and helping people get the most from their hardware and software.
I regularly write for a number of online outlets, including CBS Interactive, CNET, ZDNet and Datamation as well as acting as a technology consultant for industry, as well as radio, television and Internet broadcasters. Over the years I have authored and co-authored a number of books about technology, ranging from big, thick programming manuals to guides to building your own PC from a pile of parts.
