You found my homepage.

@   I'm also on Facebook and LinkedIn.


I live in New Jersey and work as a technology journalist.

@   Most recently I wrote for Wireless Week. I also worked at Electronic Component News, the former FierceEnterprise, eWeek, TMC Labs, and the Home News Tribune.
@   I've also been published in Technology Review, IEEE The Institute, and Light Reading.
@   Here are some clips of my work.


My avocation is technology historian.

@   I co-founded and serve as president of a user group, MARCH (Mid-Atlantic Retro Computing Hobbyists). MARCH activities include administering an email list, hosting the annual Vintage Computer Festival East, and operating a bricks-and-mortar computer museum at the InfoAge Science Center where I am a board member.
@   My expertise is the history of portable computers. I often serve as a resource for other historians, media (Modern Marvels, MSNBC, International Journal of Mobile Human-Computer Interaction - link coming soon), and students. I am also available for lectures and for patent research as a contractor via VintageTech.
@   I participate in organizations such as ACGNJ's Trenton Computer Festival, Association of Science - Technology Centers, and SHOT-SIGCIS.
@   I published a weekly e-newsletter, Technology Rewind (formerly Computer Collector), from Jan. 2004 to March 2006. In that role I was cited by BusinessWeek TV (high-res, low-res), eWeek, IEEE History Center (pdf), Reuters, and TMCnet. Click here for the old newsletter archives. Later I blogged for Computerworld.


I'm passionate about civil liberties, media freedom, curing cancer, the New (Jersey!) Giants, New York Yankees, Springsteen, Miatas, and protecting PCs from evil.
