Editor's Notes

March 23, 2019:

These are just as vital a piece of playground equipment as is the big toy and basketball hoops. Kids love the bounce, the texture, and the softness of a good ball so we made our selections with these characteristics in mind. We were especially pleased to find the Franklin Sports variety, which claim to be the ones you remember and love. We also removed a few models due to concerns about their availability.

He now lives and works in the inter-mountain West where he creates technical and marketing content, including white papers, solution briefs, and courseware for some of the world’s largest information technology companies. With more than 14 years of experience in the field, he has learned more than he ever thought he would know about such enterprise IT topics as cloud computing, storage, databases, business software, and networking. When he’s not writing about business computing, he can be found outdoors, probably hiking with his family and dog.
