Technology

I write about technology as I explore it and make it work for me. I’m a believer that technology should work for our needs so that it enhances our lives rather than it dictating how we should live through it’s demands on us.

I find the consumer culture grotesque and aim to use technology for as long as possible so that I can help to protect the environment as well as my wallet.

I believe we should own and have control over our data and recognise that whilst there are limited regulations and transparency on how our data is collected and used that I need to consider the implications of what I services and technologies I use.

I evangelise for Open Source software and hardware for equity and social justice. Everyone should have the opportunity to use and contribute to good tools and services.
