Hardware Extravaganza

It’s been a minute since I’ve posted anything new, and I apologize to anyone that follows along here and has missed my posting. I’ve been a bit busy lately with the MyNewt Operating System for IoT. It’s new, it’s cool, and it’s a lot of work right now. That being said, I thought I’d take a minute to show off some of the new hardware I have to add to the Big Board of IoT on my desk.

My Journey into Tech and DevRel

A bunch of people I know have been writing their “Journey into Tech” blogs lately, and a few of them have been pestering me to write mine, so here it is. It’s non-traditional, and filled with detours and missteps, so if you’re trying to get into tech, take heart! Oddly enough, I was actually born into ‘tech’ at some level.

Why Don't you have an Evangelist Yet?

To far too many people in the high tech world “Evangelism” is a dirty word. It smacks of marketing and sales and isn’t technical. Companies want technical engineers, they want marketing professionals. They want sales professionals. They overlook the importance of evangelism. This is going to be a bit long, and a bit of a personal history lesson in some ways, but stick with me and you’ll see why Technology Evangelism is so important.
