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:
“One can prove or refute anything at all with words. Soon people will perfect language technology to such an extent that they’ll be proving with mathematical precision that twice two is seven.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
