Re: How did you find getting a PC/online for the first time?
Excellent short list of things that are basic, Bob! I had to learn most of them by trial and error in the beginning. With a lot of help from Azz and friends on Catsey who put up with some very dumb questions. I'd used computers at work but they were not connected to th Net, just in-house billing and things like word processing, etc.Re: How did you find getting a PC/online for the first time?
As already mentioned, terminology is huge! Hard drives, USB, ports, etc. mean nothing to somebody that has never used a computer!Re: How did you find getting a PC/online for the first time?
Another good suggestion, LMB. When I first started I didn't even know the difference between a thread and a post, what "copy and paste" meant, what USB meant. And things like how to clear your cookies, cache and your browsing history. And maybe add a bit about how to post pics/links; that was all foreign to me at one time too.Thread Tools | |
