Tech Geek and More needs your help – Fund Raising

TGM Logo  Since the start of Tech Geek and More, there have been some rules we have tried to live by

  • Make Tech Simple
  • Explain things in Normal language NOT GEEK SPEAK
  • Limit advertisement on the site (including posts)
    • Clearly Label any advertisements as ADs or Sponsors
    • No ADs mixed in the middle of posts

     The reason for these rules is that those are things that drive us nuts when we visit other sites.  Simple as that!

     Now comes the part where we need to ask for help, due to our limit advertising we are very dependent on donations. We are coming up on some expenses and are currently a little short.  We want to continue with Tech Geek and More but need your help to make ends meet. 

     Let me start by saying we all understand how things our tough, TRUST US WE KNOW.  What we are asking is if you can spare any funds, if you cant we understand, but if you can afford a little could you please click on the

 

 

Sincerely

Android: Tech Geek and More Preferred Apps List. (Updated 1/8/12)

android_thumb[1]     

I’ve been enjoying my Sprint EVO phone since it’s release. Coming from years of using Windows Mobile, learning Android has been “interesting” to say the least. Since I converted to droid, I have found some apps that were nothing more than garbage, while at the same time finding many others that I now find myself not being able to live without.

     The Tech Geek and More Android Phone list has now been updated (1/8/12). You can visit the Preferred Apps page to see the complete list (LINK) http://www.techgeekandmore.com/android-tech-geek-and-more-preferred-apps-list-updated-1111/

The list are apps that are currently in my “Cant live without” category.

Thank you for a GREAT! 2011 – Final count on Tech Geek and More

TGM Logo  Happy 2012. Tech Geek and More would like to say thank you to the 116,787 visitors (According to Google Analytics) who visited TGM during 2011

Overall 2011 was best year for Tech Geek and More.  The goal for Tech Geek and More will continue in 2012, to make “Technology Easy”. Thank you once again and we hope to see you back again (many times) in 2012.

Sincerely

Tech Geek and More Needs your Help

TGM Logo

 

I started Tech Geek and More a couple of years ago as a way to communicate Tech issues and Tech suggestions to clients I work with, friends, and family. Since the start TGM has been a labor of love for me, and a way that I could help inform people about tech things in a simple NOT tech way.  I think TGM has met and continues to meet the goal of “Tech Made Easy”.

In addition, I’ve also tried to focus on content for TGM not its advertising.  No pop up/under ad’s or ad’s in the middle of story posts, or ad’s all around a a post so that you don’t know what’s the ad and what’s the post.  Those are all things that drive me crazy when I visit other tech sites, and I have never wanted to do that to those who visit Tech Geek and More. Up until now, the donations that I’ve received plus those limited “sponsored ad’s” that I try and make as unobtrusive as I can have covered expenses for Tech Geek and More.

Unfortunately, another round of expenses is coming up (Domain and Hosting) for TGM and right now funds are low.

So now I have to if you like what we are doing with Tech Geek and More, and can spare a little change (or a lot) please help support Tech Geek and More.

I thank you for visiting and supporting Tech Geek and More

android     I’ve been enjoying my Sprint EVO phone since it’s release.  Coming from years of using Windows Mobile, learning Android has been “interesting” to say the least.  Since I converted to droid, I have found some apps that were nothing more than garbage, while at the same time finding many others that I now find myself not being able to live without.

Soapbox: January 2011 Stats for Tech Geek and More. Thank you.

  TGM   This is just a quick THANK YOU for visiting post.  Again January 2011 continues the streak of Best Month Ever for Tech Geek and More.  For the month of January 2011, Tech Geek and More shows 8,569 visits with 23,866 pageviews. All I can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!

image

In addition, seeing Tech Geek and More getting visits from 129 countries leaves me speechless as well.

I know that these numbers are tiny compared to most sites out on the Information Super Highway, but to me, this is

HUGE!!!!! Really !!!!!

Tech Geek and More started as a “hobby” project. A way that I could communicate Tech info in non-geeky ways to Clients, Friends, and Family.  I never ever imaged anything close to these numbers.

 

So to all of you who have visited Tech Geek and More, Thank you. 

Sincerely,

TGM: Thank You note for making 2010 a GREAT year for Tech Geek and More – Over 70,000 page views in 2010

TGM As we start 2011, I just wanted to send out a Thank You to all those who have visited Tech Geek and More. Tech Geek and More started as a way for me to put my Geek knowledge down on (Digital) paper.  I never imaged that Tech Geek and More could reach the web traffic that it now has.

I know that many sites on the web consider over 70,000* page hits a daily goal, but for me, it is well beyond my expectations.

(*The numbers include the fact that TGM was down for a couple of weeks in Jan. 2010 as it moved to its new Server)

In 2011, Tech Geek and More will continue to do its best to inform and help its readers make sense out of this crazy thing we call Technology.

So thank you again and let the fun continue in 2011.

UPDATE: After a couple of weeks away–Tech Geek and More is back.

TGM Hello Everyone, its been a few weeks since I have been able to stop by and post.  Unfortunately due to changes at the “real” job there has been a lot of work and very little time to give to the TechGeekandMore effort.  However, things seem to have finally calmed down, so now I think you will see many new posts for TGM coming over the next few days.

Thank you for visiting TGM and I hope find TGM a help in navigating technology.

Sincerely

Alex
