While working for my former employer, I did a lot of pretty tough technology research and writing, since they were an Internet Service Provider (ISP) with a lot of neat stuff to offer to businesses looking for a local business Internet connection. However, it was all very hard to explain, and so my job was to create a bulk of articles on these tough topics that could be used for Internet marketing purposes.
Now I’m sharing them with you, as samples of my writing when taking something difficult, and explaining it in the simplest way possible (I say “possible” because sometimes hard to understand things are just hard to understand…). These are all pdf documents, so be prepared to see a download pop up box.
