9 Ways To Survive The Shit Storm of Developer Evangelism

By Adron Hall on January 21, 2014

Surface & iPad Collision Course

Surface & iPad Collision Course

By Adron Hall on November 19, 2012

Ok, I’d been looking around for a Surface I could try out. Even though I have my doubts about Windows 8 and especially RT I also am excited about a lot of the features that these operating system(s) have. But amid the parts that I hate and parts I hate, there is the simple fact […]

By Adron Hall on October 29, 2012
