I’ve always enjoyed browsing through the techy selection at ThinkGeek, and when I had an excuse to interview a representative there, I jumped on the opportunity.

After noticing the new “technology” section in the Daily Orange, Syracuse University’s campus newspaper, I decided to email the editor and ask if they were looking for any contributing writers.
