Write For SmallNetBuilder

SmallNetBuilder has always depended on talented and knowledgeable contributors to keep our content a-flowin’. Some of our best stuff comes from networking pros who have the time and talent to share what they know with others.

Unfortunately, time is at a premium for folks like that, so I’m constantly looking for new contributors. You can write about any of the topics that we cover on SmallNetBuilder, or even something that we don’t. But we generally want to stick close to the subject of small and not-so-small networks.

Due to shipping logistics, you’ll need to be located in the U.S. if you want to review products. But if you’re writing how-to’s, tutorials, commentary, etc. you can be located anywhere.

You don’t have to be a writing pro, but you do need to be able to write clearly and concisely and a bit of personality doesn’t hurt, either. I’d also like to hear from folks with their own networking-related blogs who are looking for wider exposure (and some extra income).

So if you’re interested, drop me a note. Please be sure to tell me about your area of expertise, include links to past writing and social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) and, for extra credit, pitch me an article! Thanks!

D-Link DIR-855 Getting Closer?

During my routine check of the Wi-Fi Alliance 802.11n Certified product list, I found that the mythical D-Link DIR-855 Dual-Band Draft 11n router received its 802.11n Draft 2.0 certification back on October 3. Shame on me for not catching this before now.

Trying something different for Comments

The folks over at TG Daily have been having good luck with not requiring registration for using their Comments feature. So far, at least, they haven't been overwhelmed with usual load of spam postings that such things usually bring.

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.
