Interview Reveals Secret Behind AT&T 4 LTE in Vehicles

Posted on October 13, 2014 by Lynn Walford

verizonracecarMy favorite part of being a freelance writer is interviewing experts. I can find out the deepest technical details from an expert that researching online would take days or even months.  A case in point, is that I  read in a news story that reason why Verizon Wireless was not providing 4G LTE connections in cars was that you can’t talk and use data at the same time.

Why I will never tire about learning about tires

Posted on September 19, 2014 by Lynn Walford

When I first starting researching car tires, I knew tires were important to the safety and quality of the ride. I never expected so much technology to go into the Michelin Premier A/S tires with EverGrip.

The desingers used 3D modeling and information from physicists, engineers and chemists. To test the tires, special GPS and tire shaver are used. Then to sell the tires, an illustrator/animator is hired to explain it all.

From now on, I’m spending a little more time researching before I buy new tires.

Not All Technical Writing is Good: How I Taught iPad to My 96-Year-Old Neighbor

Posted on August 8, 2013 by Lynn Walford

msfosterWhen I tell people that I write about technology, they think that I am a technical writer for Wireless and Mobile News, for which I am editor and a technology writer or journalist. I cover breaking technology. Part of my talent is figuring out what people want to read and then giving them the information in a format that they can understand. When I wrote “Computers Made Plain” articles for Investor’s Business Daily, I wrote for the audience of intelligent investors who needed to know how computers worked. Continue reading →
