My son convinced me to get wild bluewhen I first moved in but can I be honest with you? At the time, I really didn’t have any idea how the internet worked. It all seemed like wires and hocus pocus to me back then and it didn’t take me long to leave the laptop closed and just forget it was there. I guess you’ll notice that’s changed since I’m sitting here blogging and let me tell you, the only thing that changed it all was signing up for an adult computer education class at the local community college. Jim, the instructor, was great and understood that most of us didn’t know a gigabyte from a terabyte and he guided us through everything from emailing to social networking. Now I practically do all my shopping online and I’m emailing my kids just about daily – the internet has totally changed my life! I still haven’t started using social sites yet but I bet it’s only a matter of time before I get into that, too.
