Jeremy Wagstaff - Technology Columnist Work

Technology Columnist Work

Since 2000 he has been writing about technology as well and has since 2004 appeared regularly on the BBC World Service. Between 2000 and 2007 he wrote a weekly technology column for the Wall Street Journal (his final column in the Journal appeared on December 28, 2007) and Far Eastern Economic Review, called "Loose Wire". He admitted that he's no techie, but his interest in technology grew out of a realization that it was changing the way journalists - and the world - work, and that following it would probably be a better idea than fighting it. The focus of his column is how to make technology practical for average people. In 2005 he published Loose Wire, a personal guide to making technology work for you. He also keeps a blog dedicated for technology issues.

Famous quotes containing the words technology and/or work:

    Technology is not an image of the world but a way of operating on reality. The nihilism of technology lies not only in the fact that it is the most perfect expression of the will to power ... but also in the fact that it lacks meaning.
    Octavio Paz (b. 1914)

    The gold-digger is the enemy of the honest laborer, whatever checks and compensations there may be. It is not enough to tell me that you worked hard to get your gold. So does the Devil work hard. The way of transgressors may be hard in many respects.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
