Welcome to my blog. I’m Eric O’Laughlen and this is my homepage and blog dedicated to perspectives on technology and trends. Out of a sea of 85 billion web pages I hope your time spent at my particular origin server is useful. As a little background, I am currently working for Corporate Technology Partners as a Technology Consultant in Chantilly, VA. However, before joining CTP I worked within AOL technologies as a lead engineer and director over 10 years while leading and assisting in numerous software initiatives (e.g., AOL Wallet, AOL TopSpeed, AOL Web Publishing, AOLserver, AOL Parental Controls, etc.).
