So as a recruiter I am always trying to think of creative ways to get in touch with good people. Nothing will ever compare to meeting someone face-to-face or having a good conversation on the phone. The trick is getting to that point. With the advances in technology over the past few decades, there have [...]

So in my last post I talked about being the family gadget guru/the tech problem go-to-guy and I also shared where to go to find answers (in case you aren’t the guru in your family or you don’t have a guru in your family). In this post, I thought I would take it a step [...]

Help, I have an iPhone. Sound familiar? There is one in each family –  a so-called gadget guru (the family member that fixes nearly everything from phones and printers to computers, tablets, etc).  It doesn’t matter how big or small the problem is or what the request might be. The person in need typically doesn’t [...]

An article published on BusinessInsider.com after the Apple Worldwide Developer Conference reinforces the idea that Apple wants to dominate the personal technology market. Apple is intentionally ignoring the business world because they know adoption will come naturally through end users. This continued aggressive approach by Apple to release new products and software that are proprietary started to peak [...]

I converted to the iPhone several years ago when the iPhone 3G came out. My then fiancée convinced me to replace our monthly plan with a family plan so that we could save money. Compared to the flip phone that I used to own, I loved my iPhone 3G the moment I got it. I was [...]

He was responsible for setting technology strategies for Internet and Call Center capabilities. Prior to CapitalOne, Andy consulted in the financial and energy services industries. He is a [...]

Susan Frank came to UDig two years ago with a real estate and accounting background, and we’d be remiss not to mention that she’s the wife of our founder, Andy Frank. Susan is our CEO, responsible for all financial and strategic planning functions across the company. We think she’s also a great example among women [...]

Nielsen – which, we should note, was once associated primarily with TV ratings – just put out an insightful study on how and where consumers use their mobile devices. For purposes of this study, “mobile device” includes smartphones, tablets (or, let’s get real, the iPad) and eReaders. We see demand for mobility more and more [...]

An article on the new release of RIM’s Blackberry PlayBook. It’s insightful, particularly considering where BlackBerry was even two years ago versus today. RIM is drastically behind the competition from an adoption and product lineup perspective. Can they get back to their former glory? Will they exist in 5 years? Nobody knows at this point, but [...]
