A Decade in Review: Tech, Business and You

I want to invite you into a quick journey of the last decade. A journey that started with the Apocalyptic craze of Y2K and witnessed how technology turned the world from 6-degrees of separation to 6-pixels of separation; eventually reaching the Great Recession.  America also elected the first Black president in history while Google took [...]

Human Trafficking in the 21st Century is No Joke

Few things infuriate me. Human trafficking is one of them.
This form of modern-day slavery is the 2nd largest illegal industry after drug trade. It is a highly sophisticated form of organized crime that has overtaken the illegal trade of weaponry today. The UN estimates that 1-4 million people are trafficked worldwide every year. [...]

Five Days After Being Unplugged from Technology + a New Resolution

Some of my online friends pointed out that I was “disconnected” and MIA for 5-6 days. I really had no idea. By no means, did I plan to take a break from the web during the first days of the year. I got caught up with people, conversation, and social events.

Four Questions to Sharpen your Vision and a Reminder to Count Your Blessings
