  • Top Events of the Desert for July 2014

    top events banner

    Before I started my Computer and Gadget Education Business, I worked for Greg Jones who runs Desert Welcome, Locals Choice Printing and The Five Star Guide.  One of the techie things I did for him was a “Top Events of the Desert” e-newsletter.  I still do it for him every month.

    Here is a link to the July issue.  Click here.  I hope you enjoy it.  You might want to forward it to your friends.

    If you would like to make comments or suggestions, you can enter them in the “comments” section below.

    Since you spend more time indoors in the summer,  It’s is an excellent time for you and your friends to learn new computer and gadget tips and tricks.  I’m here for you all summer, so just give me a call to arrange a time for private sessions or Playshops.

    Thanks!

    Greg suggested that I send it to you and I thought, “What a great idea, why didn’t I think of that.”  So here it is. I hope you enjoy it.  Please forward it to everyone you think might be interested.
