Gadget Wisdom is Back Again

I love talking about technology, and I keep trying to keep up a posting schedule, and I admit I drift off. One of the classic site authors, The Captain, has returned to write articles. I will see about doing some more in-depth stuff as well.

Still Redecorating

Being as I’ve taken over this site to talk about my own tech interests, I’ve been working on some redecorating. I may change the layout a few more times before I settle on one. I decided it was better to get to writing than to wait until I had the appearance perfect.

As of today, Gadget Wisdom is now running as an https(SSL) site with the latest recommended ciphers. Sites are increasingly moving to https for security purposes, so why not us? We also are running on both IPV4 and IPV6 addresses. Special welcome if you are coming in from an expanded address space.

So, what am I doing here? I found I’ve been holding back over on my personal site, david.shanske.com, when I talk about tech stuff because I don’t necessarily want that in my normal feed. So, I’m going to be doing it here, along with the other contributors who have been posting articles and the like.

Any comments or suggestions are always welcome.

Adding a New Component

I’ve been silent on Gadget Wisdom for a while, because sometimes something I was interested in was not something I could write a story on. Following the idea of social media, I’m going to try something a little different. I’m going to share some stories with you. Sometimes, I may have a commentary, sometimes…it is just an interesting story. Tell me what you think.

And We’re Back

After a hiatus, I’m trying to bring this site back and commit to regular contributions. You are going to see a variety of different posts as I try to figure out the best combination of stories to generate a unique spin on things.

There are a lot of technology themed sites out there, and there is certainly a lot of room in the space. Looking forward to more.

In the meantime, why not subscribe, follow, like….whatever works for you. And if you have any comments or ideas, I’d love to hear them.
