About Ken Hollow
I’m Ken. I explain tech for a living.
My client is a fox.
Technically the most overqualified tech support person in recorded history.
Two Second Solutions is a tech explainer site built on a simple premise: if a 300-year-old fox spirit can understand the answer, so can you. I’m Ken Hollow. I write guides that make technology actually make sense — without the jargon, the condescension, or the pop-ups.
Every article starts with a real question. Usually one Nana asked. Sometimes one she asked while doing something legally questionable. The answers are always real.
Because “just Google it” stopped working
Most tech content is written by people who forgot what it’s like to not know things. The explanations assume context you don’t have. The analogies make no sense. The comments say “just look at the documentation” as though that helps.
I write for the person who’s used a smartphone for ten years and still isn’t sure what Bluetooth actually is. For the person whose IT department told them to “clear the cache” and they nodded along and then quietly Googled it at home.
The goal is always the same: read this, actually understand it, never need to ask again.
What you actually get here
Plain English, actually
Zero jargon. Every concept explained from scratch. If Nana can follow it, so can you. That’s the promise.
Tested on a 300-year-old fox
If an explanation doesn’t survive Nana Vix, it doesn’t make it to the site. Her standards are unreasonably high. Your loss is technically our gain.
No hidden agenda
Affiliate links are disclosed. Opinions are Ken’s. When something is uncertain, we say so. No fake certainty, no stealth marketing.
300 years of accumulated opinions.
Zero technical background.
Absolutely unshakeable confidence.
Nana Vix is a fox spirit who has been living in the mortal world for three centuries and has very strong feelings about everything, including technology. She became Ken’s de facto test audience because she was already there and had questions.
If a tech concept passes the Nana Test, it’s explained correctly. If it doesn’t, Ken rewrites it until it does. This is the entire quality control system. It works better than you’d expect.
