Feel the Excitement of the Internet All Over Again
Just like the emergence of a new love, nothing can describe the thrill of discovering a new computer trick, or achieving a new accomplishment that enhances your whole computer experience. I still get excited with each new feat or little shortcut I find and marvel at the strides that technology has made affording fantastic services and comforts, not to mention efficiency.
My daughter, a college student called the other day from school breathless with excitement. She had just figured out that she could email her assignments to herself instead of having to put them on a disc each time to transport her work to and from school. I felt a little guilty that I had not shared this information with her. I had just assumed that she knew. What seemed so simple to me was a totally new discovery for my daughter.
Today I was visiting with a friend. While there she asked me to show her how to cut and paste from her email messages. I was shocked that she did not know how to do these simple tasks.
I realized that although some of us have learned the various tasks and PC tips that seem simple and commonplace, there are still myriads of persons who are getting on the Internet for the first time or perhaps just now getting their first computer. These persons are totally unaware of the simple tasks you and I may take for granted and have been doing for some time now.
All of us are in different stages of learning when it comes to our knowledge of computers and the Internet. So if you have friends and relations who are just beginning their voyage into the world of computers, share the little tricks and shortcuts, the jewels of the technology, and get infected with their with their excitement.
When someone close to us falls in love have you ever noticed how their passion and excitement touches our lives in a reminiscent way and we recall the sensations of those first exciting moments of a new romance.
Help each other keep the thrill of discovery fresh and exciting. The Internet is alive with things to explore. Our computers and the Internet have brought the whole world to our fingertips and we can taste and experience peoples and cultures as if we had gone on a literal cruise around the world. And this cruise is affordable for each one of us regardless of our station and we never have to leave our desk.

Post a CommentIt's very true that a new trick can entertain you on your computer for ages! I learned a new keyboard shortcut last week and it still tickles me every time I use it. Good observations.
