Séamus Bellamy has been a fixture in the world of product reviews for close to 15 years. The author of two books—Joomla for Dummies and Drupal for Dummies—a wide variety of short stories and, featured in print and online, his work has been published in 14 languages. Past bylines include BBC Worldwide, The Globe & Mail, The New York Times, Fast Company, USA Today, PC Magazine, Maximum PC, Mac|Life, Macworld, and Men’s Journal, to name a few.

Séamus has lived as a digital nomad for close to a decade. As a result, he has a special interest in portable hardware, such as laptops, tablets, e-readers, smartwatches, and anything that makes travel easier. He believes that the best hardware is likely the gear that you already own. Lacking that, finding what’s best (and not necessarily what’s most expensive) is the next best thing. Your money is better spent on experiences than it is on kit that you won’t use.

In his spare time, he’s driven by a passion for black & white photography, travel, and meeting new people from all walks of life. Séamus is an advocate for those living with PTSD and volunteers as a peer support agent for individuals with PTSD.
