Best NAS Drives

I love a bit of tech writing and reviewing so it was a pleasure to do some more review work for T3.com. In this piece I highlight the best NAS drives (Network Attached Storage) on the market. These beauties do a lot more than store files like a traditional hard drive – they are a personal cloud service and media server. Take a look here.

Editing portfolio: April Edition of 247 magazine

A sniff of sunshine and we’ve gone festival mad this month. Our Ultimate Festival Guide equips you with info about the festival best offerings in the region and beyond, but we haven’t stopped there, we’ve secured a pair of tickets for almost all of our featured festivals to give away. See the online competitions page at www.247magazine.co.uk for more details. Should you fail to win tickets, we tell you how you can still do festivals for free – by volunteering. We also advise on how to avoid the ‘festival freaks’ that seem to appear when you least expect them… All this and the usual listings, fashion and street art makes for a bumper 48-page mag for your reading pleasure.

Read the whole magazine online here.
