My name is Joe Golton. I am a professional investor with a Masters in Computer Science from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. My Masters thesis related to e-mail filtering. You can find out more about me at LinkedIn.
FilterJoe helps you “find what you need” and “work without distraction” in this age of information overload. I describe simple and effective changes that make it easier to read, write, filter information, communicate, and focus on work. I sometimes also cover theory, mental disciplines, or any other topics that seem relevant to reducing distraction, filtering information, etc.
In-depth guides and product/service comparisons have been especially popular FilterJoe content, so expect more of these “information filters” in the future. These guides take a great deal of time to research and write, which is why I post so infrequently.
To help defray costs and encourage me to write further, I generate income via an Amazon affiliation. This means that I earn a small commission each time you click to Amazon from one of my articles and buy something.
I only recommend items for purchase that I have tried, researched, and believe in myself. Most of my posts have no links to Amazon and therefore earn no income. I also choose not to clutter posts or the home page with ads, as I’d like to help “work without distraction.”
