the scoop on DFW IT department

Jacob is the owner, developer, and operator of dfwit.  He's always had a gift when it came to computers.  Before deciding to venture in his own company, Jacob was considered a self-taught computer prodigy.  He developed software that performed tedious routine tasks that used to be done by workers.  This automation performed countless hours of work within a matter of minutes.  This type of automation can cost 20,000-30,000$ easily from a programming firm, and he was able to do it in matter of weeks, while performing his other daily duties.

He decided to make his skills available to small businesses in the Dallas / Fort Worth area and DFW IT Department was born.  His site, dfwitdepartment.com, will be used not only to showcase his customers, but he plans on having a plethora of self-help resources available.

As far as his web development goes, he is able to create merchant sites that his clients can log into to update themselves.  They can add new products, upload images, have shipping automatically calculate.  These features are all configured in a way where it's not much more difficult to do than adding an attachment to an email.

That is what he's all about, empowering small businesses with technology.  Why should high-tech solutions be only for the bigger businesses? It shouldn't.  Why do other companies charge so much more for what Jacob does?  Jacob isn't greedy.  He is building a reputation of excellent service for a great price.

If you need tech help THIS is the guy you want.  There are not many companies out there like this so I thought it deserved some recognition.

google voice


Technology over comes the problems the greedy creates.  It never ceases to amaze me what technological advances come out of google.  The most recent I found is their google voice systems.  Quite possibly the last phone number I will have to give out.

Its a free voice over ip system(voip) that connects all your phones together with one number.    If you end up changing your cell phone number(or any of your numbers), you just update your google account, and keep your same google number.

Your voice mails are also copied into text form, which is so convenient!!  I hate listening to voicemail.  Now I can just read the important stuff from them.

Very easy to block callers!  I have no idea how to do it from my home phone or cell phone but with my google number I can look through the call log and block people!!!   NO MORE BILL COLLECTORS WOO!  and they get a 'this number has been disconnected' msg xD.
