Here’s to you, work-at-home-mom »

I am just back from a vacation in sunny Florida with my kids. For one week, it was just myself, and two little girls under the age of five.

Superheroes Are Not the Only Ones With Secret Belts »

Walking the floor at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) convention, I marveled at the entire industry that has sprung up around our mobile devices. From cases to carriers- many focused on having access to your mobile phone- and with good reason.

CES 2011: Who will rule your living room – could it be – Microsoft? »

One of my first posts as TechDadCentral was about the battle for control of your living room/media center between your TV and A/V Receiver.
