About This Site
One fox. One manager.

I'm Ken Hollow. I write tech guides in plain English because my only client is a 300-year-old fox spirit who thinks Bluetooth is a dental condition. If my explanations survive Nana, they'll work for anyone.

Tech explainers in plain English. If Nana can understand it, you definitely can.
Q: Why should I trust this blog over How-To Geek?
Every article has to pass the Nana Test — which means zero jargon, zero assumptions, and at least one threat of enchantment if I'm being "too nerdy."
Q: Is this site actually useful or just funny?
Both. Every article answers a real tech question with real answers. The fox commentary is free.
