Tech Support Cheat Sheet

People need to tinker more with web sites and software... play with the options... look for buttons, menus, etc... before calling your tech friends / family members.

Back in the early days us tech guys had a common thing we all said - RTFM (Read The Fucking Manual).  Since there rarely is a manual these days with software and especially with web sites there's an amazing web site with tons of information that has replaced all of that.  I'll give you a second to grab a pen and paper to write this down.

Ready?

The site is:  W.. W.. W.. dot (hit the period key don't type dot).. G.. O.. O.. G.. L.. E.. dot (hit the period key don't type dot).. C.. O.. M..
There will be a box that you can type things into... like questions... the same question you bug your tech friends with... just type it in... 85% of the time it works every time!

Because this is still hard for people there's great flowchart by a great webcomic that you can print and tape on your 1996 series monitor.

Glad I could help.
