Articles

I’ve been writing product reviews, technical tutorials and various other types of articles for magazines in Germany as well as internationally since 2002. A large amount of them just appeared in print, some online and others both in print and online.

Below is a list - this is work in progress. Please also note that a large chunk might be in German. It seems that Google Translate usually does a good job in converting them into English, some things might appear to weird though - be warned :)
