Maxwell is one of the co-founders of Techworld, the culmination of a long career in IT journalism. He originally trained as a programmer but quickly found IT journalism more interesting and has worked on a variety of publications and websites. He was editor-in-chief of the UK's first networking weekly, Network Week, and has launched two websites for the telecoms community.
Regular comment on how business applications are shaping up in today's enterprise
Tom Jowitt was once a technical author for a company selling a legacy operating system (anyone remember Pick?). From there Tom moved to Bloor Research working as a technical editor on Bloor's "Evaluation and Comparison" reports. He then joined ComputerWire, where he wrote for the daily news service Computergram, as well as Computer Business Review (CBR) magazine
Digging a little deeper and taking a peek up the skirts of enterprise IT
David is a man of many parts. He's been a consultant editor for Techworld since its launch. David currently earns a crust as a technology consultant, specialising in networking, telecomms, security and Internet application development. He has variously worked as a systems and network manager in academia and the defence industry, a full-time writer, technical director of an international test lab, head of IT for a multi-national publisher and CTO of both an Internet startup and later a venture capital organisation. When not writing copy for Techworld or developing websites for friends and family, David's main weekend vice is spending vast amounts of money renting light aircraft to fly over the mountains of Norfolk.
John is one of the co-founders of Techworld. He started in IT journalism as technical editor of Personal Computer Magazine, and went on to edit several other titles including LAN Magazine, its successor Network World, and later the leading trade weekly of its time, Network Week. After editing startup technology title Tornado-Insider, he went on to Techword in 2003. He has also freelanced for a number of technical publications in the technology, science and business fields.
Techworld has been set up with one aim in mind; that of making the network manager's job easier.

Louise McKeag has been working in the telecommunications and networking industry for 18 years. Her network support and project commissioning work for several large finance houses and petrochemical companies has given her the dubious pleasure of installing equipment in Africa, Russia, and on offshore platforms in the North Sea, as well as various less scary places around the UK and Europe. She has also worked on a major IT publication and run training courses on networking technologies and now works as a network consultant.
