I’m Having A Geeky Blogging Month
I am writing a lot about the business of Apple.
I do project management and I do not own any Apple products yet lately, a lot of my posts are about technology. This blog is about anything that comes to mind and it surprises me that IT business is a subject that I think a lot about.
As a project manager, I am on the business side of IT and I am thinking about getting an iPad. I am sensitive to these subjects. It makes sense that I would think, and write, about these often.
I planned on the blog revealing things about myself. I did not know what revelations to expect. This one is surprising. I was hoping for something a little more interesting.
