Sept 16, 2008 Meeting Announcement

I hope you all made it through the wind ok, and I hope you have power (so you can read this post!).

The next meeting will be on September 16th, at 7:00 pm at the Canfield Prebyterian chrurch.

Some things we will talk about:

-- Check out the web site for the new Youngstown Computer radio show at http://www.youngstowncomputer.com. You can listen live on Saturdays at 1:00pm with a replay on Wednesdays at 6:00pm. You can also download old episodes.

-- We will be starting our series on getting your photos on your PC so you can do neat things with them, like making a DVD slideshow, among other things. So first things first, we want to talk about exactly how to get photos into your computer: there are several ways to do this, and where do the pictures go when they are stored on your computer, and some tips to keep your photos organized so you can find them again. For users with Windows XP and Vista, I reccommend that you go to http://get.live.com and download the free Windows Live Photo Gallery. You may have some other program to help you organize your photos, that's fine. If you don't have any software like that, Windows Live Photo Gallery is totally free, and it makes organizing your photos pretty easy.

-- For your enjoyment, we'll take a look a web site/service that is very popular with the kids these days: Twitter! It's not for everybody, but if you want to see what the hottest place is on the web these days, head over to http://www.twitter.com.

As always, we will also try and answer any other computer questions you may have. I hope to see you there!
