Biography, Colophon, Portfolio, About Me

This is my first Squidoo Lensography. I'm Vernessa Taylor and this lens is a compilation of the lenses I've created since joining Squidom. I've spent the last 25 years in and around computers (that's me in the photo there, in a computer!), from doing physical upgrades to performing training on applications.

Yep, I'm probably in love with the technical side of web development as well as creating web sites, so being here is a natural, organic extension of my interests. I like to travel and enjoy writing. It would be great to find a way to blend technical writing with my love for travel, classical and oldies music, web development, and computer training. Now that would be grand! I maintain several blogs, including one for local business owners that helps them wrap their heads around internet commerce and online business techniques.

I'm an avid Linux user (but I use Windows, too!) so I've created a lens for Windows users who might be inclined to try Linux if there were some good newbie-friendly information available.

I Love To Read!

Every waking minute can't be spent working, web-surfing, building websites, installing software . . . Can it? I love to read. Here's a selection of books I've read recently. Get a copy as a gift to yourself or another avid reader! (I haven't yet read "Freedom" The Story of My Second Life" but added it here in case you wanted the sequel to Oufkir's "Stolen Lives".) Enjoy!
