Robin Bloor’s Summary

I am a writer. I may be many other things like a respected technology analyst and a software engineer and a designer and a photographer and a mathematician. But above all else I am a writer. Which also means I am a blogger.
I have several blogs:

www.HaveMacWillBlog.com
www.WordsYouDontKnow.com
www.PDQMac.com

There will be more.
Around 1989 I became an IT analyst/industry analyst (almost by accident) and have since been a writer and presenter as well as a consultant to both the vendor and user side of the IT industry.
My primary book is Words You Don't Know - just published.
I am also the author of a book "The Electronic B@zaar" (published in 1999 and now a little dated) and the co-author of SOA for Dummies, Service Management for Dummies and Cloud Computing for Dummies (published in 2007, 2009, 2009).

Robin Bloor’s Specialties:

Writing. Ability to analyze, understand, explain and articulate information technology. Accomplished author, presenter and web designer.
