Happy Birthday Joel!

Posted on 04 April 2008 by


Please join me in wishing our resident Linux evangelist Joel a very Happy Birthday! Joel joined the team just a few months ago, and it hasn’t taken him any time to be off and running. Bringing us his Linux Podcast series, gadget reviews, and thought provoking commentary, Joel has become an awesome addition to the Gear Diary gang.

Happy Birthday Jenneth!

Some of my favorite “Joel posts” include: the incredibly popular Why Wal-Mart isn’t the place for Linux,the VIA Artigo Review,
A Open Source Router…With more power! The LX800-40 Review , and The Nokia 770 Internet Tablet Review.

And who didn’t feel his pain when he wrote Something Amazing Happened? Only to find out that it didn’t.  :-(

You can catch up on all of Joel’s posts here, you can get him something for his special day from his Amazon wish list, and you can leave him a Happy Birthday greeting right here…get busy! ;-)

I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford
