Another thing to the add to "the book". -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Russ Gowin Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2010 9:54 AM To: 'Tech-Geeks Mailing List' Subject: [tech-geeks] OT: I thought I'd heard it all
Just when you think you've heard it all, I had a teacher (Teacher A) tell me about something that happened earlier today with another teacher (Teacher B). Teacher A came to my office to ask me for some help, after telling her that I would be there in a few minutes, Teacher A proceeds to walk out of the library but it stopped by Teacher B who is helping a student on a library computer. Teacher B asks about doing research about the author of the book her class is reading. Teacher A tells teacher B "Why don't you just go to Google and type in the author's name?" to which Teacher B replies "You can only do that on the computers in the lab that have the little Google search bar in the upper right hand corner". Teacher A explains to B "You don't have to use those computers, just type Google.com into your web browser and it will take you to Google" to which Teacher B says "And this works with any browser? How do you do it?". Teacher A tells B to "Click on the address bar and type Google.com and press Enter" and Teacher B says "I didn't know you could do that. Thanks". Ya know, you just can't make this stuff up. Russ Gowin System Administrator Technology Specialist DeLand-Weldon CUSD #57 304 E.
