Thought number one: I got a picture! And made my first post!

Thought number two: I spent most of my time at the last conference talking about digital literacy. Everyday at the library I help people functioning at a very low level of digital literacy to do basic life tasks that are now only available online (plane tickets, PFDs, tax forms, job applications, etc.)

I don't see too many people asking me for help who are at a middle to higher end level. I suppose I'm at a middle or middle-high level. It's hard to say because my friends tend to be very tech-savvy geeks that make me feel inadequate, but my coworkers and patrons believe I'm a goddess of computer technology. I would use this service, except that normally I crowd source these things to my friends, fiance, brother-in-law and google searches to resolve. Honestly my technology needs are few and far between, for a casual geek like myself, it might not fully pay out.

However it is a very cool concept with interesting potential. The problem is casual geeks like myself. I like new gadgets, but don't invest that often in them and don't work the gadgets I have too strenuously. (My laptop spends 90% of its time paying bills, downloading knitting patterns, storing documents, and uploading pictures of knitted projects. I know how to make it do all that.)
