I always remember the
day I got my first PC.
I was way past normal
retirement age and,
although I had learnt a
lot in my years in
business, the Technology
Age seemed to have
passed me by.
As I was packing my bags
ready to quit the
business scene forever
(little did I know then
how the PC would change
my future) computers and
all that go with them
had only recently been
born and were then only
used by a small
percentage of the
population.
That was then, just look
at it now only a few
years on - where would
we be without our PC and
the Net?
Anyway to go back to my
first PC.
In spite of all the
knowledge gained in the
Real World I was TOTALLY
CLUELESS when it came to
this new Cyber World.
I was almost afraid to
switch the thing on in
case I had got some
wires crossed and I blew
it up.
Well I guess I've learnt
quite a bit since then
but fortunately I can
still remember how
difficult the learning
curve was for me
initially. I
say initially because
one of the things I did
quickly pick up on was
how easy it was to find
out "how to" on the Net
and also just how many
people were keen to help
me find out "how to",
without any thought for
personal gain.
This was, and still is,
a fact which
continues to amaze and
impress me and long may
it continue.
Sticking to the "how to"
theme but getting back
to the subject in hand I
do realise that tasks
which I now take for
granted and accomplish
without thinking may
still seem like yet
"another mountain to
climb" for those who
have never done them
before, so isn't it just
great that there is a
Good Samaritan around
who has produced these
amazing Free Videos.
To start with 5 Training
Videos (with more to
follow) starting with
the very basics and
actually showing you
"how to"
Great for Newbies and
even the Not Quite
Expert.
Experts may find them a
little Old Hat.
