FOOD - Technology - FOOD - User Help - FOOD - Questions Answered


Anyone who uses and abuses today's technology is invited. Come out and help someone, get help from someone and enjoy good food.

NETSocials were started in the late 1990's and ran until the mid 2000's.  Now it is time to pick them back up and get even more people involved in having some good food and using your technology to its fullest.  The idea behind NETSocials was to meet other geeks and nerds, everyday computer users and new people, out side of work for some sustenance and cross pollinate ideas to make your user experience better. The reason to bring them back is there are so many more people now using technology who need that informal help. Get a simple question answered or show off an Easter Egg.

Think person to person interaction. That human contact thing that is lacking in just computering.

To more fully understand -  google the term: askew    See that explains it much better than I can. 

Did you know that no matter if you have an iOS or an Android smart device you can write text on your screen with your finger in google.com to do searches? Nothing else needed it just works.  That is the kind of thing you'll learn or teach someone else. One of the most important things we learned when NETSocials were first around was that no one knew as much as all of us together. 

This is a BYOD and order your own food meeting.  Have a web site address to share with everyone. Bring you questions and there will be someone there who can answer it or point you in the right direction.  Call up a friend and invite them to come with you.

Whoa! I remember NETSocial 1.0! Wasn't that an Iglou-based community venture?

Since this forum is way down the list (off the first page in many browsers) and hasn't been used for ages, Richard, I'm thinking it might be okay to post this in the main forum. If you don't object, I'll use Sysop Magic and move it over.
