Well, Technically ... Welcome

Greetings and welcome to 'Well, Technically ...'!!

Who are you and why do we care?
My name is Dan Bough, and I currently support Cisco networks for companies all over the world. Whether it be routers, switches, or voice equipment, my job is to support and fix issues that pop up, or implement changes a customer requests - by far, this is the best job I've ever had (well honestly, it wasn't much of a competition.) I've worked in fast food, life insurance, factories, computer retail, dental networking and infrastructure support. None of these jobs paid well, but honestly I'm thankful for them. They all got me to where I am today and allowed me to absorb information about a wide array of 'stuff and things.' I don't know why you care - thats just a mean question!

What is your motive?
In my travels, I've seen many a glassy eyed consumer trying to figure out which end of a piece of technology is up. Computers, smart phones, PDAs, televisions, or anything else that powers up and has blinky lights; not everyone has the ability to operate them out of the box. If they DO figure them out, chances are they will break at some point. Whether its the physical device, or the software that runs on them panic will take over and tears my fall (well, maybe not tears - but hey - ya never know.)

What will you give me?
Thats where 'Well, Technically ...' comes in. I'm here to explain, how it works, how to fix it, and where to go for more information on it. I don't know the answer to everything, but with the work of information we all have available to us, (in the famous words of Fox Mulder) "The Truth is Out There."
