Why Clean Your Network Pipes?

First things first, let's tackle the elephant in the room. Why, you ask, would you need to clean your network pipes? Well, dear reader, as dust bunnies can clog your home's ventilation, digital dust bunnies (yes, we're coining that term!) can clog your internet connection. Slow speeds, lagging video calls, and endless buffering might be your network crying out for a clean!

Enter the Mighty Can of Compressed Air

Now, we're not talking about just any cleaning routine. No, we're proposing an innovative, state-of-the-art, groundbreaking solution: canned air. That's right! The same stuff you use to blast crumbs out of your keyboard can now be your secret weapon for crystal-clear connectivity.

Imagine it: with just a few spritzes, you're not just cleaning; you're performing an exorcism on those pesky digital gremlins that haunt your network pipes. Wave goodbye to the invisible cobwebs of yesteryear and hello to the superhighway of tomorrow!

How to Proceed?

Grab your canned air, attach the straw nozzle (precision is key!), and aim it towards your router. Now, give it a good, long blast. The high-speed air will travel through your network cables, whisking away any data that has been loitering around too long. It's like a spa day for your internet connection!

But Wait, There's More!

As a special April Fool's treat, if you clean your network pipes today, you'll unlock the secret bonus level of the internet, previously accessible only to wizards and tech gurus. This bonus level offers lightning-fast downloads, instant buffering, and, rumor has it, an eternal free subscription to a VIP meme stream.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab that can of air and give your network pipes the puff of life they've been gasping for. It's quick and easy, and if nothing else, you'll have a blast—literally!

Happy April Fool's Day! And remember, a clean pipe is a happy pipe!

My Story

A little history on Russell Mickler, Principal Consultant for Mickler & Associates, Inc. of Vancouver, WA and Portland, Oregon.

I like to say that I started using computers when I was knee-high to a grasshopper. I was about ten when my father introduced me to a Commodore Vic-20. I started using the computer for games, programming, and accessing other computers on bulletin board systems throughout the United States.

When I went to college, I thought I’d be an artist. Well, that didn’t pan out and I had to focus on something that’d feed me. During the early 1990′s, Total Quality Management was really en-vogue so I thought I’d end up doing that, until a friend of mine called me up and asked if I would like to be on Microsoft’s technology support team for a new product called Windows95. It was brand-new technology and sounded really cool. I progressed from technician, to network engineer, systems manager, IT director, and finally vice president of information technology for a corporate credit union. These were the boom-years in tech and it was an exciting time to be working.

After Y2K, though, a lot of my work was about cost-containment: reducing staff, increasing efficiency, outsourcing, and doing more with less. I saw the writing on the wall and figured, hey: this is all what IT was going to be about and cost-containment was dull. I wanted to innovate! So I hung-out my own shingle in 2004 and went at it alone.

Running my own gig has been great for me: honestly, there’s nothing better than being able to use tech to pull-off something amazing – like we did in the 1990′s – or at least help a company use technology more effectively. The capability offered by microcomputers today rival the power of mid-range and mainframe systems that I managed over a decade ago; there’s a lot anyone can do with little investment. I try to bring enterprise-level expertise and service to the small business and differentiate myself from other break/fix techs by concentrating on trust, value, and respect – core ideas that made me successful in the enterprise.

Thanks for your time today. Please join me on Facebook to learn more about how I can bring value to your small business.
