Wondering who's behind the site? This page gives you a little information concerning the TFTS team as it presently stands - I say presently as we are always looking for additional writers that can assist us in delivering that up to the minute content you crave.

Contact: Email Chris | See Chris's author profile: Chris smith
Chris Smith is a writer, a blogger and a freelancer. He started writing about gadgets as a hobby a couple years ago and before he knew it he was sharing his views on tech-related stuff with readers around the world. He is passionate about new technology and he will give you his piece of mind on whatever gadget you lay in front of him. From cell phones to cars and everything in between, from 'ancient' tech to new releases he is truly interested in everything that should, at least in theory, make our life easier.
Whenever he's not writing about gadgets he miserably fails to stay away from them, although he desperately tries. But that's not necessarily a bad thing (certainly not when writing for us, anyhow - ed)
Contact: Email Steve | See Steve's author profile: Steve Anderson
Steve Andersen hails from the depths of Michigan, where he's been freelance writing for the last six years. Long, cold Michigan winters combined with a skin tone that hates daylight produced a man who understands all the best things to do when you're hiding from weather.
Steve has written on everything from tech and movies to gaming and politics, and loves to find the most exciting stuff out there and bring it home for others to see.
Contact: Email Eric | See Eric's author profile: Eric Abent
Eric has spent all of his life living in Michigan, which gave him plenty of time growing up to sit inside and spend cold winter days playing video games. Interested in anything concerning video games, he's pretty excited to be writing for TFTS. The only problem now is delegating his time between writing about video games and actually playing them.
Not having any formal training in journalism, Eric tried his hand at freelance writing for the first time about a year ago. When he discovered that he could actually get by without a degree in anything English related (he holds an associate degree in Theater), he turned what used to be just a pastime into steady work. His other interests include politics, literature and acting. He's still living in Michigan - though he someday plans to move to Chicago - with his girlfriend Ellie and his dog Heidi.
See Robert's author profile: Robert Nelson
Robert Nelson can be described as a technology blogger, a new media junkie, an endurance athlete as well as a proud husband and father. More to the point though, he is just an all around geek.
In terms of technology, Robert has long been in love with all things tech and was fortunate enough to turn a passion and hobby into something he can get paid for doing. Basically, he is "that guy" who is always ready and willing to talk tech with anyone that will listen and fortunately for the readers here, most of his friends and family are all tech talked out.
See Kevin's author profile: Kevin Schram
Kevin has spent way to much of his life investigating and studying the technology, video game and new media industries. While working on never finishing his bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Kevin's academic focus was on Cloud Computing and Network Security, which naturally lends well to Web 2.0, or at least that's what he tells himself. Despite not having anything important to do, Kevin prefers the cold efficiency of a BlackBerry vs. the warm fun of an iPhone. Before writing for TFTS, Kevin previously wrote about the video game MMORPG industry.
