January 2013 Classes

January 2013 computer classes have been posted on the TAB  above:  Class Schedules.  

The first two classes will be Smartphones and the presenters will be the Geeks On Tour Learning Videos.  These excellent short videos will present concise information and can be replayed.  Bring paper to take notes. There will be a handout from Geeks On Tour.  

At the end of February there will be a round table discussion of Smartphones led by members of the Computer TEAM.

Class are on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Wednesdays at 1:00 PM.  There is no class on the first Wednesday of each month.  Wednesday classes are $2 to help cover the cost of handouts.

There will be a limited Thursday morning class at 10:00 Jan. 10 and 17 in the LC.  These classes will be on learning to make a blog.  Six students can sign up on the computer table.  Information is posted on the cabinet door.  There is no charge.

Welcome Back, Internet!

A very brief blip of power to the park on Monday, December 11, 2012 was just sufficient to wipe out Internet access to the desktops and wifi!   With searching in the LC and help from Jerry in Michigan it was determined that the culprit was the failed modem from the phone company.

The park called the phone company.  Their tech came 48 hours later and reconfigured their modem.  In his terms, "The blip of power scrambled the modem's brains!"

Our very adept computer gurus are looking at adding a device to prevent these failures.  The early absence of the Internet was reminiscent of the last season.
