About TDR and John Dodge

The Dodge Retort (TDR) blog is John Dodge’s personal and professional blog which covers his favorite topics:   netbooks, media, social networking, technology, politics and even the wonderful exploits of my children. I was writing just about netbooks which I enjoy, but have many other interests as well and expounding on those  feels right. So screw it. I’ll make money a different way and write from the heart at TDR. That’s the personal part. And surprisingly I’ll talk from the brain.

The professional part is to showcase my vast experience, awards and work as a journalist.  Yes, my primary role is as a blogger now, most recently as the ThinkingTech blogger at SmartPlanet.com. So I hope you see a fit between my skills in the online (and print if you need it) content world. Feel free to follow my pithy tweets on Twitter or friend me on Facebook.

Who should read TDR? Anyone who’s interested in the same topics as me as mentioned above: netbooks, computers, technology, politics, social networking, media and green tech. As always, your thoughts no matter how insulting are welcome here as post comments or shoot them to  me in email (jdodge349@gmail.com). You can compliment me, too. TDR’s founder and primary author, John Dodge (me) has used and covered digital technology for more 30 years with stops at PC Week/eWeek, the Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe and many other web sites and publications.

    John, I will look forward to your blog updates and when twitter starts working again tonight I will follow you there.
    Your Blog on Bernie Madoff reminds me of the great presentation given by Frank Casey to the Boston Irish Business Association meeting in November what a story! Frank mentioned they tried to get the WSJ to print and investigate the story for 3 years!.
    Happy New Year say Hi to everyone for us.
