On the one hand, I mostly agree with Warner and John that it would be better for SF to be questions from professionals about managing computers. On the other hand, apparently my instinct is to consid …

When it comes to "Reach(ing) the right kind of publications and bloggers," one thing that strikes me about the lists of interesting IT blogs is that there's a huge variety. Everyone seems to have the …

NO To expand: We're already leery of questions about home routers... they could conceivably be on-topic if it's a sysadmin trying to make remote access work, but few (if any) of the home router ques …

I think the knee-jerk reaction that "it's meta, it has to be on meta" and "this is a dup of Jeff's question about growing the SF community" are a problem. This isn't a dup of "how to grow" it's more …

For email client questions, for me it would depend on whether it looks like a personal question ("what IMAP clients can I use w/ Gmail?") or a business network question ("for (obscure reason) we can't …

I think the change that made downvotes on Questions "free" happened before you signed up, so that's not it. (Before the change, it cost the downvoter a point of rep, now it doesn't.) Unfortunately, …

I upvoted a couple of of his answers w/out noticing the username, so I'd say it's ok. Looking at the account now, it seems overly self-promoting to include the company name, but I don't think it's an …
