Hello. I’m Chad Calease and I make the stuff on this site, initially built as a connection to family and friends while I was living and working in far-flung places, before social media. This site is only an exercise and continues to evolve, hopefully into a useful trail that helps someone find their way back to whatever they were trying to do before getting tangled in the ‘Net.
Here are some frequented guides/posts:
