WTAM 1100 – Geek Squad – November 8th, 2011
Any time you deal with a piece of misbehaving technology, the temptation will be to be very creative in your swearing when describing the state of the issue.
I had a chance today to talk to Bill Wills of WTAM 1100 Newsradio in Cleveland about how you can reduce that techno-stress when dealing with your PC this holiday season with a few tips from from the Geek Squad.

Halloween is known for the paranormal, but it can also be about technology. I gave a few examples of how you can use apps and websites to track your kids, light their way and enjoy the holiday to Wayne Dawson of Fox 8 News in Cleveland this morning.
This week’s Tech Tuesday segment for KARE 11 News in Minneapolis allowed me to talk about my two favorite topics: “Halloween” and “Technology”.
I gave smartphone tips to parents and costume seekers, and even had a chance to show off the Meister House Halloween setup.
The New York Times has an article up with tips on preventing unintended damage to your laptop.
I was one of the many technical support professionals quoted in the piece, but it’s always fun to see your name in a high profile site like the New York Times. The NYT has a tradition of being very formal when referencing names, making it funny to at least me to see “Mr. Meister of Geek Squad” being referenced.

I spoke to Bill Wills on Cleveland’s WTAM1100 Newsradio this morning about a few tips to help keep your email safe.
