Welcome to the New Fall Season

The Senior Center is newly painted, wired and ready for action.  Let's all enjoy the programs.  See you there!

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".

Our First Post

The Computer Club now has a blog! Stay tuned for interesting and timely items. Visit us online or at the San Mateo Senior Center.

We've added our logo of the computer holding a letter. How? It is an old logo and we only have it on an old brochure, so we made a digital image of it, saved it as a .jpeg image, and then added it to the sidebar.

We also added an avatar (representation of a person) in a computer classroom. That's fitting, right? Several of us will be experimenting and "playing" with the words and design, so please don't be surprised if the original orange template is a different color next time you look.

Homework for the computer club: Look over this blog and then learn how to create your own by taking the free & fun online course called "CSM Learning 2.0". There are 23 "Things" to learn -- learn one thing a week or one thing a month. Enjoy!
