About

For the last 10 years I’ve run managed services provider Digital Days Inc (ou L’ère numérique Inc pour nos clients francophone!) from our Montreal lofts along the Lachine Canal, first at Complexe Canal Lachine and now at Complexe Dompark.

Digital Days offers corporate “à la carte” IT support services complemented by an array of hosting & colocation offerings from our datacenters (located within iWeb and Canix).  We have customers all over Canada and now from the United States.  We provide services to companies such as Molson, RONA, KPMG, TurnItIn and host or colocate community projects such as Ile Sans Fil.

My background is a mix of Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering and Sales.  During my school years, I had the opportunity to work both in the Telecommunications field as well as with bleeding-edge flight simulators.  My involvement in the management of Microsoft networks spans over 20 years.

Until now Digital Days has done no marketing, all of our business has come from word of mouth referrals.  If you don’t know someone who knows us, you probably don’t know who we are.  We’re going to change that.

On the technology side, these days for home and office I’m sporting a 15″ MacBook Pro (including a VMware image of my old Windows desktop) which I use with a Dell 3008 monitor.  I’m shooting with a Canon 5D Mark II and primarily the EF 85mm f1.2L, and also use the EF 50mm f1.4, EF 16-35mm f2.8L and EF 24-70mm f2.8L lenses and a Speedlite 430EX Flash.  For true 1080p HD video I’m using my Canon 5D Mark II.  To create prints, websites, books, and HD movies I’m using Aperture, Photoshop CS4, iPhoto, iMovie, iTunes and ScreenFlow.

As I’m sure you’ve already noticed, at this point I’m pretty much a complete Mac and Canon convert in spite of being surrounded by both Microsoft and Open Source systems all day long.
