Adam Fendelman

Adam Fendelman is your cell phone rabbi. He has been the editor-in-chief of MidwestBusiness.com – the Midwest's largest technology publication – since 2000.

A techie by trade and since the womb, Adam Fendelman has been a cell phone, personal technology and telecom reporter and editor professionally since 2000 and personally since he can remember.

While Adam reviews all cell phone carriers and makers with standard journalistic objectivity, his carrier likes to remind him that he was among the first customers in his hometown of St. Louis. It's a mystery which carrier that is as he's impartial to any one in particular.

Adam is heard weekly in technology podcasts, is a listed inventor on a pending software patent, has guest appeared on various business radio shows, has countless news bylines accessible on the Web and has been published and syndicated as a journalist all over the world.

Most of all, he "gets" cell phones and is passionate about delivering the same "ah hah!" understanding to you.

Adam graduated from the Missouri School of Journalism at the University of Missouri-Columbia with a bachelor's degree in news/editorial journalism. The university enjoys its consistent ranking as the world's best journalism school.

While techies crave bantering about the next great "killer application," most of us gloss over many of the whizzbangs and whatchamacallits in simple favor of the two that matter most prevalently: email and cell phones.

It's no irony that both killer apps focus on human communication. For About.com, I've honed in on cell phones because we'd still be cavemen without modern speech.

Drawing from my Jewish heritage and after having been imparted with so much general knowledge from rabbis over the years, I'd be honored to be considered yours for this critical gift of technology.
