Mac Classes - July '11

Here's hoping everyone had a wonderful Independence Day weekend! I'm back to a full slate of classes for the month, and a little late getting this out, so let's get right to it...

Mac class news for the month:

 For starters, Saturday, July 16th, from 10 a.m. to noon, (due to continuing requests) I will again be covering the iPhoto program. Come learn all the ins & outs of Apple's amazing digital photo organization/editing program. This class carries a fee of $20.

 Then, on Saturday, July 30th, from 10 a.m. to noon, I will be revisiting the topic of Social Networking. In this class I will cover Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc., etc. The emphasis will be on figuring out how to navigate these wild & crazy new social fads, and at the same time maintain the privacy levels we all prefer. If there's interest, I will also cover the ways in which these tools can be put to use in marketing a business. This class also carries a fee of $20.

***The above classes are always held in the small meeting room at Ridgway Town Hall, and are open to drop-ins, with no sign-up necessary***

Then, don't forget, there's...

 The regular FREE "Overview of Mac OS X" class will take place on the last Wednesday of the month, July 27th from 5-7 p.m. These overview classes are held in the computer lab at the Ridgway Library. There are only eight seats available, and the Library has asked that I handle the sign ups, so give me a call at 970-417-8434 (or drop me an email) if you'd like to attend. (Be aware that first-timers take priority over anyone who has taken the class before, but there are often openings for repeaters).

There are six Macs in the computer lab, so only two of the eight attendees need their own laptops. This class is beginner-oriented, but we cover some different things every month; repeat attendees are encouraged (when there's room)!
