About

Smarter Geek is my web site I use to post all my IT, Space and other Geek releated material.

About the author:

Alan Burchill

I have been working in the IT industry for over 10 years focusing on Microsoft centric solutions where I have worked for and consulted for large multi-national companies and government agencies. I have extensive experience with implementing and designing group policy for corporate server and desktop SOE’s. I have been a speaker at Microsoft TechEd Australia where I talked about implementing and using Group Policy. I have also developed and deployed Microsoft security patching strategies for desktop and server fleets.

I am an self confesed Microsoft Fan Boy and I make no appoligies for my biased that may been seen in the articles in this site. However I do also use an iPhone so I do recognise that  some things out there might be better (in some areas) than what Microsoft does.
