About
Welcome to Hi-Tech Prophet, the tech/gadget/etc. blog from Net Prophet World Control. Many of you may know me from my other online properties, or through my “day job”. I’m a professional sports handicapper and one of the ways I stay ahead of the bookmaker is to leverage technology to my advantage. While John Q. Public might think that sports handicapping and betting aren’t activities that keep you on the tech cutting edge they’d be wrong. Virtually all of the successful professional bookmakers, handicappers or players I know are very tech savvy. At Hi-tech Prophet, I’ll be sharing some of the tools, tricks and other bits of random information that enable me to do my job more efficiently.
Even if you’re not a professional handicapper or bookmaker, the demands of these professions–the necessity of communication with a far flung network, the need to quickly assimilate and process rapidly changing data and a constantly evolving marketplace–are ones faced by many professionals. Whether you’re a tech developer, investment banker or college professor you’ll be amazed how similar the challenges that you deal with in your job are to the ones I deal with in mind. And hopefully my insights and solutions will help you as well.
