About Rob Clymo
Freelance writer for digital and print, specialising in tech, gadgets, automotive and innovation but also covering travel.
What tech products or categories are you most passionate about?
I still love Apple products having started out with an LCIII and am now rarely without my Macbook Pro. The great thing is it'll work seamlessly with my other Apple products and, thanks to convergence, that also extends to using Apple CarPlay when reviewing cars. That's not to say I don't like a Windows machine. In fact, I spent time working at Microsoft where I created and edited the Innovation channel at MSN.
When did your interest in technology begin?
Starting out on magazines I got really into Apple products that were so good for creative tasks. Once the web got going properly I was fascinated by the transition from print to online and came along for the ride. I'm glad I did.
What tech products or categories are you most passionate about?
Most of my time is now taken up writing about the automotive marketplace, which features so much tech it's hard to ignore. These are exciting times too, with electric vehicles being where most of the action is occurring.
