What to Expect

Complete honesty in the technology industry, you will get the warts and all version. I don’t speak about the company line, marketing speak of technologies and so on. What I do talk about is how to get things done with the tools that are out there. I keep it light hearted, I don’t mock anyone else apart from myself…. basically I have a laugh. It’s entertainment with information.
