Computer Club Learns to BLOG!

On Monday, April 5th, the SMSCC discussed and started its blog in earnest! That means we all decided to "FOLLOW" our club's blog. Or... most of us committed to the fun challenge.

We added a photo of this cute cat because it is looking at us and will remind us to "FOLLOW" this blog.

The first portion of our meeting today was the "Help Desk" time for asking all sorts of questions about our technology troubles. Today, we discussed the tool bar and how to keep it from moving to the side of the screen. The answer is: Tool bars can be easily moved from the bottom of the screeen to the side or top by left clicking the mouse and "dragging" the tool bar. If you don't wish for the tool bar to move, we learned how to "LOCK" the tool bar by right-clicking and selecting "LOCK TOOL BAR".

New Apple iPAD

Apple released its long-awaited wireless iPAD device on Saturday, April 3, 2010. Some eager fans camped out overnight by stores in order to be the first in line to buy one. There were long lines in the morning. As they waited in line, many "Twittered" about standing in line. :) Here is a CNN article about the iPAD roll-out. Lots of features and fun, especially for Apple fans who like the latest and greatest.

Competitors will soon catch up and prices will drop, so this is the time to watch who is buying it and how it will be used.
