Hello, I am Paul, and thank you for visiting my website!
I created Computer Looking Up to write useful articles primarily about technology, astrophotography, and my other interests like science fiction.
About Me
I have over 30 years of experience in computer programming, information technology, and project management.
When I am not writing here or photographing the sky, I may be practicing guitar, playing games on Steam or Xbox, or spending time with my dog. I am always looking for my next “build” project, which could likely get written about on this blog.
I follow professional golf and American football. My original upbringing was all around baseball, but I have lost most interest in it, for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is the now-universal designated hitter. Before there were two identical American Leagues, I was a fan of real baseball played by the old National League.
I am an Eagle Scout.

How to Follow Computer Looking Up
The best way to follow my blog is to bookmark my website, computerlookingup.com.
As of September 2024, the only social media outlet that I will continue to post to is Gab. Aside from the nicest and cleanest interface, I found Gab to have, by far, the highest level of actual user engagement for posted content. None of the others, like X/Twitter, came close, and when there was engagement, it was usually from bots obviously fishing for followers.
