  • Looking For Ed: Which Ed Egan are you looking for: The Archbishop of New York? (I'm a pantheist); The CEO of Egan Systems? (I'm not that vain); The (now dead) NYPD copper turned actor? (I'm alive); The web-savvy audiologist? (I'm tone deaf in one ear); Or the entrepreneur turned academic? (I'm not saying I was a good entrepreneur). Either way, I finally take a stand on getting my eponymous domain name to the top of Google
  • Taking control of your tech: I provide some information in response to frequent questions about the technologies I use in both this website and my research.
  • Questions, comments and contact: I generally respond to (meaningful) email quite quickly. Try me at ed@edegan.com
