Why a Blog?
I want to help YOU understand what the Internet Of Things (IoT) holds for you and your company.
I very often meet people that are afraid to ask the questions that, in fact, everyone is looking to have answers to:
- What is the IoT?
- What does it mean?
- How can I benefit from it?
- What are the technologies out there?
- Etc.
I want to bring answers to those questions through blogs, interviews, and books.
