Keys-to-Go 2 Every month Logitech surprises me with an even thinner and smaller keyboard. This issue is no exception, although I’m not expecting anything at all to beat the Keys-to-Go 2 anytime soon.

Look At Me… In 4k Zoom meetings are the new normal, even as working from home restrictions become retreating memories.

It’s incredible how far humanity has come with plant life in our race to create crops that can keep up with our ever-increasing demands.

Then in recent years, we’ve gotten […]
A few months ago, through a series of bizarre events, I sat in on a funding round pitch, listening to Startup hopefuls. I was struck by a few things. One, scaling is a bitch.
