Paul Boggia - "I.T. - My Articles"

Articles by me

I'm in a relatively unusual position of being an advocate of technology, and I.T. in particular, in the hospitality industry. I've enjoyed some success introducing I.T. to the trade, and this has been done with both the HospitalityMachine distros, and writing articles.

The bonus is that I find writing technology articles enjoyable!
