I live in Greensboro, North Carolina with my wife, Lisa. We have two kids and a dog. I've worked as a staff writer at Forbes, a contributing editor at Wired, an editor and writer for various Ziff Davis publications, and a columnist for the Greensboro News & Record. I am employed just now by Oxford Economics. This is my personal weblog. The opinions I express here are my own and should not be held against any other publications or organizations with which I am associated.
