I am such a geek. I can’t help myself. I love learning new things, from new technology to a new word to new species of life I just love the excitement of learning something new. I also love to solve problems and help others. My intent is to marry all those things I love to do into this super blog where I can record all the things that I have done to help friends solve their problems. Mostly this is related to computer software problems but I don’t want to limit myself to just that. I will be looking into computer hardware, home theater, basic electronics among other things. Once I have my solutions published I can easily refer my friends to my blog when they need help. I am trying to fill in a hole where many people that offer tech support assume the users knows more than they actually do. I want my help to be easy to use, accessible and applicable to everyone’s lives.
So here are some things that I have been intending to do for a while. I am going to jot them down here with the hope that I won’t forget them and can refer back to this posting when I need an idea.
