We live in an area that has begun to make use of Green Bins for household waste. Our regular rubbish is picked up every other week & the only every week rubbish collection is our green plastic bins, to be filled with leftover food products & other organic waste.
When the program first started, I was times one time positive they could never alter our ways, but before long, depositing bones & leftover food in the bin became automatic.
Why am I telling you this? Because using the computer will also become simple for you the more you try. Positive, the learning curve is steeper than recalling which container to make use of for which sort of rubbish, but the idea is the same. Every time you perform a function or solve an argument on your computer, it will be simpler than the time before.
This week, I read a book written by Bill Gates in 1996 titled 'The Road Ahead'. Gates said, "Computers frighten everyone (everyone but children), before they learn to make use of them. When people spend more time with computers, they understand them better. You can start by playing computer games or doing other simple things. By the time you start using them, I think you'll like them."
Speaking from experience, times you start using computers, not only will you like them, you'll wonder the way you ever managed without.
With the Net, they can keep in contact with elderly friends & make new ones; play cards with somebody on the other side of the world; have virtual experiences of flying an airplane, driving an automobile, even dissecting a toad. Pilots & doctors practice their work without worrying about accidents. & every school can have a superb library thanks to the Net.
Gates saw then how much our world would alter because of computers. Banking & shopping online, distance learning, the ability to telecommute & work from home - all of these grew as program became better & more powerful. Not only have the ways they work & relax changed, even the way they interact with other people has been altered thanks to the computer.
Gates talked about his own futuristic house. Somebody in the house wore an electronic pin that told the house who & where you were. When it got dark, the pin would turn on lights nearby & turn them off when you went away. Music would play near you & the phone ring nearby only if the call was for you. A home control console activated choices of lighting, music, & temperature. That was in 1996, so who knows what his home is like now!
The book ended with a cartoon showing a mutt using a computer & saying "On the Net, nobody knows you are a dog." How true - on the Net, they are
