Nick Hoover Bio

Nick's been a technology scribe for InformationWeek since 2005, writing about networking, voice over IP and government policy before moving into the Microsoft beat at the beginning of 2007. He now also covers Enterprise 2.0 and collaboration. Prior to joining InformationWeek, Nick was a graduate student in journalism at American University, where he was a general assignment intern for the Washington Examiner and news editor of an online magazine at American. He found his reporting itch through a blogging stint he began during the initial salvos of the Iraq War in 2003. He lives in Baltimore, where he trades an occasional hour-long train ride to the nation's capitol for lower rent than if he lived in D.C.
