Where’s your data?
March 5th, 2010 by Wes Johnson No comments »When I started writing this post, I had high hopes that I would be able to recover the data from my damaged USB drive. Sadly, my USB drive activated just long enough to say goodbye. The LED on the drive glowed for about 30 seconds and then fizzled out. The bad news was I lost my portable storage.

How to guard your data
March 4th, 2010 by Wes Johnson No comments »
What’s on your USB drive? Many people have their entire life on their USB drives – contracts, proposals, resume. What would happen if your USB drive was destroyed or got into the wrong hands? Many times each day we take our technology for granted.

Think outside the box
February 25th, 2010 by Wes Johnson No comments »We’ve all heard it before. What is the definition of insanity? – repeatedly trying exactly the same thing and expecting different results. I’m not insane but may be acting a little like someone who is. I have been searching for a position in the occupation I’ve held for many years in the past. Unfortunately, due to the economy, the opportunities at my current education level have dried up at this time. As I see it, there are three options. » Read more: Think outside the box
