			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Late last year <a href="http://peter.roj.as">Peter</a> and I began a mentorship program with some students of the Torah Academy of Bergen County; Eli, Chaim, and later Charlie and Tzvi got together to begin writing an editing a gadget blog aimed at teenagers casually interested in technology, dubbed the <a href="http://teentechblog.com/">TeenTechBlog</a>. These kids have definitely made a lot of progress over the past six months. Starting a site and following it through isn&#8217;t as easy as it looks, and they&#8217;ve have been continually upping their game despite their demanding school schedule.</p>
<p>I think the question I&#8217;m most often asked by people not already in the industry is, &#8220;How do I break into writing about technology?&#8221; The answer is pretty simple: start writing, keep writing (even when the initial luster has worn off, even if you&#8217;re not collecting droves of readers and scads of review units), and with any luck you&#8217;ll hone your skill and catch your break &#8212; not unlike the path the crew at TeenTechBlog are already on.</p>
