Office anywhere

My work finally got my laptop set up with a VPN (virtual private network) that actually works. My job requires me to spend a lot of time at clients sites rather than at my office. Before I had a reliable VPN I would have to go into the office to get specific task done. Now my computer gives me access to everything I need. The tricky part is making the mental adjustment of doing work in the field that I used to only do in the office.

It has been far too long that record companies have profited off talented artists while the talent receives next to nothing. If you're trying to make it in the music business, tap into the power of tech to make yourself known.

Now if I could just get the microphone to work over blue tooth.
