About Dave McQuilling
Dave McQuilling has spent over 10 years writing about almost everything, but technology has always been one of his main interests. He has previously worked for newspapers, magazines, radio stations, websites, and television stations in both the US and Europe.
Dave is based in New York, but grew up in North East England, which makes conversations with Google, Alexa, or any other voice activated home assistant a total nightmare. Times are changing though, his Amazon Echo now calls the TV the "telly."
