The Most Overhyped Technologies of the Century“, an illustrated slideshow written by Jim Rapoza and drawn by me in vector style.

This show errs on the side of curmudgeonliness, I think, but it was really fun to draw abstract things like “social networking” as if they were has-beens appearing on an awards show.

How Not to Get Ahead in IT“, an illustrated slideshow for eWEEK written by Deb Donston and illustrated by me.

This was another pen-and-ink + photo background slideshow, and I think it came out pretty well. The idea was to evoke those days when people would tape up cartoons to their office walls (do people do that anymore?)

Technical notes: the “wall” is actually a manila file folder with two pieces of crumpled paper taped to it, tweaked on the computer to take out the color. The cat5 cable and cd packaging are from another couple of photos.

The 13 Scariest Things in IT“, an illustrated slideshow written by Mike Vizard and illustrated by me.

This was the first (circa 2006?) of a few Halloween-themed IT slideshows I did. It’s always fun to draw monster-y things. I bet these days most of the slides would be related to “the cloud” or privacy issues.
