Sean P. Aune has been a professional technology blogger since July 2007, but his love of tech dates back to at least 1976 when his parents bought him a small transistor radio he would listen to before bed. He has rabidly followed tech trends ever since, and once he got on the Internet in Sept. 1986, it was all over for him. Sean is the Editor-in-Chief of TechnoBuffalo.com
