Life in 2011 is a world where staying connected and being organized requires us to keep up with modern techology. This is especially true when it comes to making friends through Pride Lafayette or being involved as a volunteer with our organization.
With this in mind, we invite you to join us for a free, two-part seminar called "Catching Up and Staying Connected with Modern Technology", hosted by our education and technology committees. The seminar is an expanded version of our "Pride U" programs for January and February. Part 1 of the seminar will take place Tuesday, 1-11-11 from 6pm to 8pm (Facebook event). Part 2 will take place one month later on Tuesday, 2-8-11 from 6pm to 8pm. Both parts will take place at the Pride Lafayette Community Center, 640 Main St., Lafayette.
You're welcome to come and go as you please, as this is intended to be a light and fun chance for everyone to learn some basics about modern technology, ask questions, and try out some new things.
Some topics to be covered in the seminar include email, online calendars, keeping online task lists, photo sharing, social networking (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.), YouTube, blogs, smart phones and other mobile devices, and web site design.
The seminar is free and open to people of all skills and knowledge levels. If you own a laptop or a smart phone, you're encouraged to bring it with you. We also need technology experts to attend and bring gadgets or projects you're willing to demonstrate. Note that the Center does have free wifi.
Please contact me if you have any questions about this series. You're also encouraged to send me specific questions you'd like us to discuss at the seminar.
Yours in pride,
