A CIO’s perspective on Cloud Computing
Being a technical CIO / CTO / Consultant for a living, Cloud Computing has definitely come to the forefront of technology today.

Which Linux Distribution to Choose?
There are so many linux distributions out there and while they are all very similar, they are different in ways due to their target audiences. Some are targeted more towards the end-user like Ubuntu while others are clearly targeted towards the Enterprise. Ubuntu is a great distribution for a desktop replacement, but for me, I…
Well.. It turns out Kickstarter turned down my project for helping the unemployed.
Interestingly enough, Kickstarter turned down my project, citing the reason, “Self-Help” violates their terms and conditions for projects.
