The view out my window

March 8, 2010

Daily I work in a cube, except for today. As you can see, I’m in my ‘away’ office, yet still connected.

And yes, I am work­ing. Through the won­ders of tech­no­logy, I’m crank­ing out the copy, send­ing the email, edit­ing the text and pho­tos.
This is Life­style Tech­no­logy at work. Wifi enables me to be mobile / […]

Write a comment, win a prize!

March 1, 2010

I’ve been a fan of Click­free backup sys­tems for a while now. Drop­dead simple and effect­ive for most home usage. Well now the kind folks at Click­free have given me the oppor­tun­ity to share the love, so to speak, in the form of a con­test, my first, in fact.

Brad’s first blog contest — backup horror stories

February 1, 2010

Wel­come to the first (of hope­fully) many con­test I’d like to run on my blog. I’ve been doing this tech-writing thing for a while now, but I’ve always been look­ing for ways to more closely engage with you. I think I may have found it with this style of con­test — I get you […]
