The Computrix

Many, many years ago, when I was self-employed, I came up with the idea to provide personal computer training to busy executives - these folks often don't know how to use Office programs and are too embarrassed to ask their admins for help and are too busy (or embarrassed) to attend a traditional corporate training class. I figured a customized one-on-one session would be ideal.

I just couldn't figure out how to market it. "Discreet, private instruction" made it sound like I was going to show up in black leather with a whip. I could have gotten paid more for that, I'm sure.

Thus was born the concept of "Mistress Karla, Computrix", for "a disciplined computer experience".

No, I didn't really do that. It would have been fun, I admit, to thwack someone across the knuckles when they misbehaved in, say, Outlook: "NO! You do NOT put everyone's name in the To section! Use BCC! [Swak!]"

Anyhow, when it came time to create a infosec-focused blog I revived the domain I purchased years ago (I purchase domains when I have ideas...) and here we are. There are older entries for now, from another project, and since I hate tying myself down (just others 😏) I can't promise any sort of regular updates. Posts will happen when I feel like it.

Update: I now have a Latin phrase, "Quae nocent, saepe docent." (look it up 😎)

Enjoy!
