Simple.
Hi, I'm Kia. Lover of all things simple. After my career in tech for the past 35 years, I’ve noticed a trend where ‘leaders’ and ‘managers’ shoe horn technology where it’s not needed. I decided to leave the bubble to live a simpler life. And share my experience so maybe you can achieve the same level of calm I’ve come to enjoy. The transition for me hasn’t been easy. It’s been one of the most difficult things I’ve ever done. But I was willing to sacrifice.https://kiakamgar.com

Is it time to stop using Zoom? 22.12.2020 36:17
Last week, I read a scary article about Zoom and how they might be monitoring the calls we all are having. As you know, I'm very much against 'big tech' having too much information about us. This is one reason I stopped using Facebook many years ago. Even Google has a lot to answer for when It comes to privacy and the data they collect while we're surfing the web. Anyhow, back to Zoom. If like me,...

Bouncing between tools won't help 16.07.2020 3:41
