Would all the computer challenged people please stand up!

After 5 years of being in the multi media industry I have encountered many people who claim to be computer illiterate and technically challenged. In my experience most of the time these people actually really do comprehend the basics of the internet and are just hiding behind the fear of coming across as uneducated or behind in the times.

I'm here to tell all you doubtful people to stand up and take charge of your knowledge. Erase the phrase "This my be a stupid question" from your vocabulary, there are no stupid questions! We welcome your questions and are here to educate you and make you more comfortable with the process because it is just going to get more and more advanced as the years progress.

The best way to figure out how the internet works is to try to break it. Yes that is correct I'm telling you to try to break your computer!! ;) Now I don't mean smash it on the ground or open the thing up and take it apart, but go online and press all the buttons you can see, if you want to make sure you can backtrack in case you do something that you may want to change back write down your process. Click on all the header menus in internet explorer (that's usually a safe area to start) and see exactly what they do, usually there will be an explanation.

The most effective way is to read through a manual but even better, if you've heard a computer phrase used and you don't know what it means...GOOGLE IT! That's double the learning experience for you!

Ok so everyone here is a question: What does it mean when a website is in your cache? Let's see who can come up with the answer first! (those of you who already know please refrain from responding it doesn't count if you are a web guru!) Also don't forget to include your source of information so we can validate it and other people can use the same source for their own guidance.

Any other questions? please feel free to ask us we are your multi media experts at your service!
