Spoiler Alert - New Workshops afoot!

 Keep a look out for our soon-to-be released revamping of all our workshops.

 A chicken in every pot and Internet in every house. If I have said it once, I have said it a thousand times: The internet has now become a mandatory utility needed for business and civic engagement in today's society.  Unfortunately, the status of internet importance has surpassed the availability of fast, reliable, and affordable internet for everybody.  For many, they need it but they can't get it. In other words, we have put the cart before the horse. This discrepancy is what we down on the ol' techno farm call 'the digital divide'.  There is some hopeful news on the horizon to deal with this. Pennsylvania has received over $1,000,000,000, (yes - that's  BILLION) dollars to close the 'digital divide'. Overseeing this massive plan is the Pennsylvania Broadband Development Authority. Here is the short version of what they are all about: Goals and Objectives : Universal Access : Ensure all residents have access to high-speed internet that meets or excee...

WHAT THE . . Dogs Eating Frogs?!?!

To create this, I used the picture generation AI built into the Microsoft EDGE web browser (called 'CoPilot'). By typing into the chat box a request to "create a photo image of a border collie with red and white fur preparing to eat a frog sitting on a plait on a breakfast table". And Voila!  I have a border collie doing all types of things throughout this presentation. This is just one example of how AI can do amazing things to assist with workflow (at least for me).  Would you like to see what else this intrepid canine does?  Then register for my workshop and have a...

Any requests from the peanut gallery?

 As many of you know, the schedule of workshop topics has been consistent over the years. Every so often a new one may be added, an old one taken away. But buy-and-large it has been consistent.  This is so everyone can attend them all.  Miss 'Internet Basics, Pt. 1: Tech and Terms' this month? Don't sweat it, it'll be back next month. Ohhh, but woe unto thee that has attended them all! Besides the plethora of knowledge, you would have gained, there is nothing new to learn! You don't even get an' I attended every CareerLink® virtual workshop and lived to tell the tale' Commemorative T-shirt! Well, my dear friends, I am open to requests. Is there a topic you would like me to present that I have not covered yet? A 'special guest' (within reason - I cannot swing getting Taylor Swift to co-host, try as I might) you would like to talk to and plumb the depth of their knowledge? Keep in mind it should relate to some aspect of improving your career/job prospe...
