I think I’m becoming a computer expert.
Those of you who know me personally may think I already am one. I’ve been working with computers for the last ten years, after all. I know a lot of things. But I’ve never thought of myself as an expert. Experts are the sort of people who know tons about programming and care about things like gigaflops. They wear glasses held together with tape.
Well, I don’t know much about programming and I don’t wear glasses. However I’m a voice in computing. All the knowledge I’ve gained in the last ten years is spilling out now. I’ve got a list of technology article ideas a half a page long. I lead a women’s IT group. I spend too much time at my computer (which is how you get to be an expert, I imagine).
Was this what I wanted from my life?
