Because I'm Such A Technophile

In searching for reasons to start a second blog, it seemed obvious to me the best thing to do was to just be honest; I love good technology; I am a technophile. This sounds like the sort of thing that a "Computer Junkies Anonymous" member might confess to, but here there is no twelve step program. Here, I want to talk about what I consider good, usable technology. I doubt that I'll talk gaming systems, though they are a major moving force in technology. Instead, it's usable tech as previously stated, little gadgets that make our lives easier... or more complicated, depending on how well they're implemented.
From my own experience as an end user, I think that it's very easy for serious tech types to forget that there are people out there who only long for things that are simple, easy to use and durable. In that area, I'm a bit luckier than most in that I've worked in a variety of tech environments and around a number of operating systems, even serving as a tech as needed. Ultimately, it came down to this; does it work, or doesn't it?
Thanks to those things that did, I've become a techno-junkie... err, technophile.

Hi, my name is Rob, and I'm a technophile.
