Network Tools
If you examine the history of personal computer and network development you will see it didn’t garner much attention and it was a strictly nerd thing until someone decided to start connecting the machines together. Then it gained alot of attention form enthusiastic people, both developers and explorers.
So its fitting to cover what i feel are the best tools with regards to exploring and learning about the network that connects to your machines and the ones that you connect to.
Theres all kinds of tools to manipulate and understand the data flowing through your wires. And while I intend this blog to encompass so much more than technology, technology is my current passion so it makes sense that I am writing about it.
Most tools i will discuss are built with a GUI and I go with these because they are simple for folks who are learning to understand, I feel that you get more power from command line tools, but these are more difficult for the beginner.
