About

Welcome to my fraction of a dot.

PaleBlueBytes.com is a long sought project of mine. Between starting a business and recently getting married I’ve simply not had the time to dedicate to maintaining a blog. However I spend a lot of time every day answering peoples questions about anything ranging from web development, general Macintosh/Windows tech support, home networking and more, A/V equipment and other various electronics. I field a lot of the same questions or come across a lot of the same problems myself, so why not document it?

I’ve started PaleBlueBytes as a general technology and web development blog with bits and pieces of my own personal musings mixed in. It will probably be a little WordPress centric since that’s what I spend most of my day working on. I’m happy to field questions on most topics, so just shoot me an email if you have questions. My main goal is continue what I’ve done for all my professional life, help people solve problems.

 

A little about me.

  • I’m now an Apple Systems Engineer at Elon University
  • I’m an entrepreneur.
  • I drink Apple’s Kool-Aid. (Get well soon Steve!)
  • I’m a general tech-fanatic.
  • One of my favorite books is American Nerd: The Story of my People by Benjamin Nugent
  • I have an unhealthy obsession with Superman.
  • I’ve grown older, but I never really grew up.

 

What is PaleBlueBytes?

Ever since I was a child I’ve always looked toward the stars. The universe truly intrigues me and I feel Astronomy is one of the most humbling activities one can participate in. I consider myself somewhat of an Astronomy and Astrophysics hobbyist. My favorite author on these topics is Carl Sagan, of which my favorite book of his is Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space.

Instead of rambling on about it, I’ll simply leave you with a great video featuring the popular “We are here” excerpt from the book.
