Hi, I’m Peter Scargill – Pete – I am responsible for this blog and am interested in all things IOT and gadget-related.
As a teenager, I played with electronics for fun, writing for magazines such as Practical Electronics, Elektor, and several other tech magazines including Dr Dobbs – then for decades I worked in a jointly-owned small business, developing home automation and general computing and electronics and as a result, I have a vast amount of practical experience of what works and what does not work in tech, particularly in home automation. I’m also interested in new, technology-related products and you’ll find lots of reviews in here – with many more to come.
Mostly, please enjoy the articles and the great feedback from subscribers.
I’m married to Maureen and we have several cats. Having spent many years travelling for business and pleasure, I now live in Southern Spain with occasional trips back to the UK Northeast to visit friends. We’re quite settled here in the Granada region and the people have proven to be welcoming and friendly.
If you need more information about me – you’ll find it here.
