So post something about computers, will you. Whining is prohibited.
I do, when I have a question. I know just enough about computers to
recognize a problem, and that's why I'm here! Overall, what I've learned
on lists like this is being passed along...
I have started "teaching" computer use at our local senior center. I have
a little 4-machine lab and a whole bunch of people who are curious, yet
afraid of new technology. One by one they are starting to come in to try
their hand at it. I have browsers set to open with Google and 2 people now
have Gmail accounts. It's only been 2 weeks, and some of them are becoming
fairly confident with the machines. Anyone who wants a bit of more
advanced help can ask for it. It's very rewarding to watch them walk out
with big smiles on their faces.
