Hey there AtA fans! I have been crazy busy lately with my 9 to 5 and I have taken on some more writing gigs. Maybe not as busy as our AtA mascot hanging on the left but still busy nonetheless!
I am still doing my 3 articles a week for MakeUseOf.com and I have been averaging 1 eBook a month for them as well. I just posted my second post to GeeksAreSexy.net. If you want to check out my posts click the following links:

Man, I just wasted an evening on that. I do take issue with some of their answers though. The first graphical web browser, as anyone in UIUC’s CS department will tell you is NCSA Mosaic, not Netscape as they said. I know Mosaic became Netscape, but still… it just isn’t right. Fun game though and you get a chance to win a guitar or t-shirt.
I did notice a few questions that were a little bit iffy as well. But hey all in all it was cool. Thanks for stopping by Bob!
Karl, congratulations on being quoted in the NYT, that is pretty awesome!
Thanks Rob. Hope all is well with you!
