November 3, 2010

Wow!  What a pleasant surprise to see so many people in attendance at our first Computer Club meeting of the season today!!  I was expecting about 6-10 but we had 20 happy faces present this morning. 

After a brief round robin of introductions, we delved into the Palm Creek Golf and RV website and toured through all the new segments that have been added:

    • Event Calendar
    • Activities Calendar
    • Athletics Calendar
    • Sales and Rental Availability
    • “Community” information
    • Interactive Map
    • …and… how to send an electronic picture postcard back home to family & friends

Check it out at:   http://www.palmcreekgolf.com/

Next we toured through the Computer Club blog to read the minutes of past meetings and to learn about what will be presented at the upcoming meetings.  We learned how to read “comments” and how to leave a “comment” on a blog.

We toured through the “calendars” posted on the Palm Creek Club blogsite and visited blogs from other PC clubs and groups.  Spread the message to your neighbors and friends as there are still many uninformed folks out there who can benefit from visiting these websites.

Come join us next week for a great informative presentation by Mike Salter.  Mike is a retired Computer Technology instructor and is a great resource for all computer subjects!  His topic next Wednesday will be Computer Maintenance: Disk CleanUp, and keeping a Healthy Computer.  Mike embellishes his “talk” with a pleasant and entertaining computer presentation so come prepared for information AND fun! 

Mike maintains two websites that you may find of interest:

www.5thwheelforums.com

www.homeiswhereweparkit.net

Other club members have websites also:

www.williammurr.blogspot.com

www.rayvalentine.com

You may bring your laptop if you wish but it is definitely not required. 

PLEASE REMEMBER TO WEAR YOUR NAME TAG.  We want our meetings to be a fun and sociable place to meet new friends.  Name tags are a great help!

Hope to see you Wednesday, November 10, 9:30 a.m. in the SanTan Room.
