Let me start by telling you about myself. My name’s Charlie. I am one of the countless gremlins on the internet with an unhealthy obsession with technology. I suffer from gadget acquisition syndrome (props to whomever coined that).
As a byproduct of my illness, I have developed an unhealthy level of knowledge on technology’s greatest trends. VR? Check. Smart thermostats, cars, watches and sprinkler systems? Yup. Streaming ripped blu-rays across your home network and beyond? Uh-huh. Anything from that all too talked about fruit company? Definitely (in fact I worked there for a spell).
I’m the guy who visits The WireCutter on a regular basis just for fun (if you don’t already know what that is, you should). I’ve developed a habit of examining regular household items and questioning their quality and design, and then scouring the web for something better—I’m giving my desk chair the stink-eye right now. Bottom line… If it’s a product category with cool toys, I’ve probably read up on it, played with it, and bought into it.
I’m creating this site with the intention of providing one guy’s thoroughly researched advice on various hot button areas of tech. This is not meant to be an unbiased review site, but rather a comprehensive look at different product categories with my point of view front and center, take it or leave it.
Today, I’m sharing/spreading my knowledge, opinions, and occasional technological pipedreams with you.
May this be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
