Bud Smith wrote his first book for Que about buying computers fifteen years ago-and had to do his online research for it using dial-up Internet. Since then, he's lived and worked in Silicon Valley; London, England; Auckland and Christchurch, New Zealand; San Francisco and Oakland, California, and written a dozen more books. And he does most of his online work at broadband speeds-except when he's using the Web on his cell phone, which is as slow as his old dial-up modem. Bud runs a WordPress-based blog at RunawayDaily.com. Michael McCallister is devoted to the idea that technology need not be feared and can be mastered by anyone. He has been writing about technology in general, and open source software in particular, for the whole of the twenty-first century, and part of the previous century, too. He tries to help build the open source community, from which derives WordPress and so much else that is good, true, and pure in life (the parts of life that run on computers, anyway). While Bud has moved hither and yon, Michael has lived the relatively boring, stable life in the central United States (Milwaukee, Madison, and Boulder). Michael has been running "Notes from the Metaverse" on WordPress since 2006 at metaverse.wordpress.com. Find out more at www. michaelmccallister.com.
