Being mobile is part of modern worklife. The skies are full of people living this reality. I once calculated I had spent a full 3 months not touching terra firma. Why? The Hobo within. Working like this has been a convergence of passion and profession. Lets talk about how this works.Travel involves technology sublime and mundane. I write about that which I use and understand. I am a middle aged guy who learned about tech by using it to get my job done. I ran restaurants mostly. I am that mythical person the tech journalist cite when the talk about "most people, not like us" when they make observations about tech. I claim only that I have been there, used that during the dawn of the PC era.
