Nate is off in Uganda, Africa with PatricksChildren.org so we have a special episode covering some of the biggest areas of technology in our lives and best practices in each one. We look at different spectrums, even a few pendulums, of these six topics to help you tech better.
If you need help with any of these topics please ask. If you have a business Nate would love to work with you via his company www.ConsistentTech.com
Make sure to join the Notnerd Facebook Group and let us know how you tech better.
