Join Us Tonight for #NerdChat on Twitter
Our first NerdChat on Twitter last week was a success as Nerds from around the world had several conversations on a variety of technology related topics. There weren’t many non-Nerds during that hour, but we suspect that’s because a lot of people just didn’t know about it yet, or wanted to first observe and see what is was all about.

Things to Consider When Getting a New Hard Drive
…This got me thinking about the average customer experience in this sort of situation, and especially how frustrating it could be for those less tech-savvy. There are lot of factors to consider when getting a new hard drive. Brand, price, storage space, older vs newer connectors, purchasing locally vs online, installing the hard drive, backups, and more. In many cases, people sometimes have to bring their computer to the shop to get it installed, which is a hassle.
