What is an NFT
What is an NFT

There's a new form of tech making waves and leaving loads of people confused. Is it a new cryptocurrency? Not quite. We're talking about NFT's of course, the newest buzzword in tech. NFT stands for 'non-fungible token' or in simpler terms a one-of-a-kind token.

To make it simpler, we're going to compare NFT's to trading cards. Each card is different, making it non-fungible or one of a kind, unlike something fungible like bitcoin. When you trade bitcoin for bitcoin you'll end up with the same thing. Swap trading cards however and you'll end up with something totally new.

So what is on these trading cards? Literally anything! An NFT can be drawings, music, video clips, etc. For example, Jack Dorsey the founder of Twitter sold his first tweet as an NFT. This is like he put his tweet onto a limited number of trading cards and sold them with a note of authenticity. These trading cards (NFT's) can be held onto like a rare piece of art or they can be sold later for a profit.

Art is one of the biggest markets currently for NFT's. Buying a limited art piece as an NFT is a little bit like buying an original painting. Sure, you can buy a print but you want the bragging rights that come with owning the real thing.

But for most of us, paying hundreds of thousands for digital artwork isn't something we can afford. So how can you get involved with NFT's? Going back to our trading card metaphor, the NBA created basketball NFT's where you can buy NFT's of plays, players, highlights, and more exactly like basketball cards of yore. Anyone can go visit NBA Top Shop and pick up a pack and see what they get, exactly like buying a pack of trading cards.

There's a lot more tech behind NFT's, like the blockchain network it uses but we hope this clears up the basic concept around what NFT's really are!

We reached out to Rich and his team at Computer Geek in July 2021. We were in desperate need of help because our former website design agency left us hanging with major website issues that needed immediate attention. Rich and his team were extremely helpful and quick to come to our rescue! They have helped us with numerous projects that have helped our SEO. Our sales have increased 30% since coming to Computer Geek. We've been working with them for about nine months now and are very pleased with their response time and helpful manner. Rich has proven himself to be trustworthy and dependable. We feel valued as a customer and look forward to continuing a relationship with Computer Geek.

I would certainly like to recommend that anyone pursing maintenance for a website to contact The Computer Geek. I have been using another company to do some maintenance on my site with moderate success. There were issues that were evidently beyond what could be handled by them. However, the professionals at The Computer Geek had them addressed and rectified in no time at all. The Computer Geek approached all of my requests focusing on my goals and the needed performance. Then, once versed, presented me with a very reasonable price. Once the projects were in motion, I found that the tasks were achieved before I expected, with professional results. Also, in one instance where The Computer Geeks brought an issue to my attention that I would have likely overlooked. This was accompanied by a recommendation on how to solve the issue. Overall The Computer Geeks exceeded my expectations!

We discovered an issue with our Oscommerce cart processing images. It is about 14 years old and heavily modified. Looking on google for some expert help I found Rich and reached out to him. We received a response the same day. The next day his team was working on our issue and was able to solve it within a few hours. Price was reasonable and we are very appreciative to find a competent and professional oscommerce expert to help successfully troubleshoot our issue.

I'm very new to the whole idea of having a website / blog. I used Bluehost.com and WordPress.org to create Thepredatorhunter.com and then managed to wreck it.

In trouble? Stop fretting and start typing in the chat box. You will be glad you did!
