Day Two

Day two started with a new helper who will be with me every Mondays (Yay for Reade!) and my nine members who started last week. Right, we now have everyone with an email address. Everything set to go....no!. All my power points are working now and email seems to be working....no, email is not working. I got everyone to start a keyboards shortcuts document that they can add to at leisure while they are waiting for me to fix the problem. Good old or should I say young, Reade, talk about a problem-solver. He said to me "shall I go in the staff room and see if the cord is plugged in?" my reply "no it was working a minute ago, it may have just timed out". He went anyway, and wallah! it worked and you know what he did? Plugged the ethernet cord back in. Someone had used the internet access point and forgotten to plug our cord back in. Yay, now we can get onto what we need to do. Sending emails using to ,cc and bcc. Sounds all too confusing but really to and cc mean the same thing (send to whomevers email address you put in)and every Tom, Dick and Harry can see your email address, bcc however is not. To the unknowing it means blind carbon copy or whoever email addresses you put in here will not show up on everyone elses email. (good if you want to keep people's email addresses private). Saving to USB, now this could be a challenge.....wow! It was great, not a worry, no hassle, saving to usb a breeze. Anyone have any great experiences they want to share?
