The Thursday Threesome: External Hard Drive

Onesome: External-- What sorts of gadgets do [you have] hanging off your computer? We'll spot you that printer, but how about other goodies like scanners, card readers, cameras, MP3 players and such?

Wireless card, flash/jump drive, and an external 3.5-inch floppy drive.

Twosome: Hard-- What part of working with computers is hard for you? ...working with one particular piece of software? Getting that camera to connect? ...or dealing with the family members who don't understand what the deal is?

Just don't ask me to actually program something. You know, writing any sort of code that doesn't have anything to do with web pages.

Threesome: Drive-- What drives you to the computer? Is it friends? Work? News? Recipes? The weather radar?

E-mail.

Y'know, I had just that very opportunity in my schools, both jr. high and high school.

On the rack of books we could pick was "Childhood's End" by Arthur C. Clarke (which I now understand to be a loaded title since he's a pedophile).

It rocked my world. It opened up both the world of the novel and sci-fi for me. Until then, I didn't realize that a novel could contain so many wonderful surprises.
