My family just got back from a week-long vacation on Maui. People keep asking me how the trip was and I never know quite how to answer… Amazing. Wonderful. Perfect. Without-a-hitch.

A couple months ago we pushed out a blog about all the technology surrounding Super Bowl 49. While most of us were talking about why Pete Carroll decided to throw the ball on 2nd and goal with short time left (a poor decision in my opinion…), some of our blog readers called asking questions about…
