The more I learn... the less I know.

When it comes to electronic type thing, I

am at a lost. Be it learning a new camera,

cell phone, computer and etc..

Then throw in the new stuff on the computer.

I manage Facebook, but that is sooooooooooo

yesterday.  There is Twitter, Instragram, the

Cloud, AND so much more.

I was reading in Time magazine about a new

one (geesh, guys, I am still trying to adjust to

the old) called Slack.  This is so new but it has

a great following already... a lot of businesses

use it.  From the article I take it ..it is a huge

business step.  Looks like 80 or more per cent

is on the business front. But that doesn't mean

the average person...... well, I should correct

that.. the average techie person.. uses it too.

And slowly or not, fast coming up will be

the people who use Facebook, Twitter and

Instragram, and these, will be history as well.

The name of the article by the way is..

EMAIL KILLERS...  and I have to be honest..

I don't do anywhere as much email as I use to

before Facebook.. I use Facebook message a lot

more.  With so many people doing Facebook

on their phones (not me.. I don't have a cell phone)

that you get an answer a lot faster.   And especially

now, because people check their message area, but

hardly ever check their emails.

I feel like a person who is still doing her wash

in an old Maytag wringer washer... while the rest

of the world is doing their wash, by putting their

dirty wash on a hanger, and press the button, and

the clothes go thru a closet and come out the other

side clean and press and in to your clothes closet.

(you can bet some day that will be the way of the world)

As it is.. I went into Staples to look and drool over their

large tablets.. which I would like to have one. A 10 incher.

But I will have to buy one at a hock shop, with Windows 7

in it... because the world is up with Windows 10 and it is

so way different from what I know.  My laptop is a 7, and

heard that Windows 8 was a mess.. so had no desire to get

one.  Now every computer has a pop up of FREE WINDOWS

10.. well, for me.. not even for free.  There are people who

are having trouble with 10.. besides just watching the gal

explain it to me.. I got a head ache.. AND there is NO office

program anymore.. so no free typing of letters and etc. That is

extra. about $100 extra.. and no more cd or dvd players and

recorders.. don't know if they just did away with it.. or you

have to pay extra for that.     I like my Windows 7.  I am use

to my WINDOWS 7....   and like a typical New Englander..

I don't like change.. especially when it gives me head aches

to just watch someone else do it.  So guess I will keep checking

the hock shops for a tablet... with Windows 7 in it.  and so far.

my laptop is doing fine.. and I can make dvd's, and I can make

cd's and I can type a letter if I want to... which by the way

that is a old one too.. I think it is Office 2000, which I installed

because some one got a new computer and gave me their cd

of it.

Yep, the more I learn,  the less I know..
