About Me
Thank you for visiting TechBite. I am Sam, which is not my real name but a nickname. I borrowed it from one of my favorite characters Sam Winchester from the TV Show Supernatural (that I obviously watched ONLY as I was a teenager).
After working in high-tech sales, marketing, and product management for years, I have gotten into the habit of overanalyzing technology. Especially (IoT) companies and products that impact us as consumers. Market research and analysis is a favorite pass time of mine – sadly – as opposed to other healthier alternatives (like the outdoors).
There are times when I really want to share my thoughts and ideas on a subject because I think some people may benefit from it. I made this blog precisely to do just that. It gives me a way to share what’s cooking in my brains.
As you can tell, I haven’t published many articles in the last 4 years. Parents, kids, and a full-time job has kept me busy, but I promise I’ll get around to it.
What is TechBite ?
I love reading tech news and reviews, but often get annoyed by click-bait and poorly researched articles, even from well-known names. This was especially apparent when it came to subject of IoT (Internet of Things), which is my specialty. I started TechBite in 2016 with the idea of doing two types of articles:
- Deep dives: For those of you (like me) that get annoyed by big misleading headlines that usually lead to poor articles with a couple of filler paragraphs with no meaningful content. In some cases, all the information they had was already included in the headline. I am sure you know the type. We all hate those type of articles, don’t we? This will be the opposite of that.
- Simple lists: These are time-savers for when you just need specific information about a product or news. The idea is for you get you all the information you need about a topic in a couple of minutes. Imagine having to read for 10 minutes (so they can sell you a bunch of stuff) before they get to main point of the article. This will be the opposite of that.
At the current rate, I am doing about one article a year, unfortunately. But I do think my articles are unique. I just need to find a way to be less lazy about it. I promise if you check once every couple of years, you will find some interesting stuff here.
Cheers!
