geek in Honolulu has accomplished, often against serious odds. This month's
 belated Featured Techie is different. This is not to say that Keiki-Pua Dancil
 doesn't have technology chops. Coming off a gig at one of a… Continue

Haralds Jass, the CEO and founder of Superb, turned this logic on its head. The remote time-zone is excellent for covering both the U.S.and Asia in the same work day.
