Dear Reader,

If you're reading this, then you've taken a positive step towards a computer career. Why? Because curiosity is the topmost trait necessary in the computing industry. Besides inquisitiveness, a few other traits can make a technology career appealing - a desire to learn and keep learning, a willingness to tackle change head on and the persistence to hone your skills day in and day out.

If it's the right choice for you, an Information, Internet and Technology career can be rewarding, satisfying and challenging. My role as Computer Careers Editor is to help guide you through this vast (and still expanding) field.

The computing field is one worth investigating. It offers a large variety of jobs for all backgrounds, ages and skill levels. Being into computers no longer means typing away in front of a display screen in an anonymous cubicle in a big office building. With a personal computer and the Internet, it can mean working from your home office, a Starbucks cafe or your dining room table.
