About TDR and John Dodge

(Updated 5/3/2010) The Dodge Retort (TDR) covers my favorite topics: technology, media and just plain interesting stuff. This is my third blog, preceded by a yearlong stint at Thinking Tech at CBSi site SmartPlanet.com and two years at Green Engineering (born Design Engineering at Large) at engineering magazine Design News where I was editor-in-chief until February, 2009.
The links below go to pages showcasing my 30 years as a online and print journalist. Presently I am regular contributor to Securities Industry News (SIN). I resigned from my SmartPlanet.com blog in April, 2010 to concentrate on my role at SIN, regularly contribute to TDR and take on other projects.
Who should read TDR? Anyone who wants to take advantage the insight I’ve gained during my 30 years as a journalist following technology, engineering and business (PC Week, WSJ and Boston Globe among others): specific topics include consumer electronics, renewable energy, social media, IT and the reinvention of media. As always, your comments here or to me in email at jdodge349@gmail.com are welcome.

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.
