Help Wanted

To help SmallNetBuilder grow, I’m looking to expand our roster of writers. You don’t have to be a professional writer, but do need to know what you’re talking (or writing) about. I particularly need reviewers for routers and NAS products and folks who know their stuff on network security.

Pay is modest, but the satisfaction you get from sharing your knowledge with like-minded folks is better than big money, right? The sooner you get in touch, the sooner you can start.

Drop a line to [email protected] or use the Contact Form. I’ll want to see a sample or two of what you’ve written, so please include that or links to it, too. Thanks.

Intel does the Right Thing

Tuesday's entry by Intel into the draft 11n market was a bit of a surprise, given its history with being late to the party with previous wireless LAN product generations. But the 11n train left the station awhile ago and Intel, like any other company wanting to stay in the WLAN game, had to get on board, draft status or not.

But aside from lending legitamacy to a technology that has so far been most notable for further decreasing the chance of an average consumer having a successful wireless networking experience, and for getting reviewers' and pundits' shorts in a knot (myself included), Intel did something else. Something that, in my opinion, they didn't play up enough in their announcement material or webcast / conference call, and that deserves special mention.
