Useful information on PDA's
HowStuffWorks Feature:
How PDAs Work
The main purpose of a personal digital assistant (PDA) is to act as an electronic organizer or day planner that is portable, easy to use and capable of sharing information with your PC. It's supposed to be an extension of the PC, not a replacement.
PDAs, also called handhelds or palmtops, have definitely evolved over the years. Not only can they manage your personal information, such as contacts, appointments, and to-do lists, today's devices can also connect to the Internet, act as global positioning system (GPS) devices, and run multimedia software. What's more, manufacturers have combined PDAs with cell phones, multimedia players and other electronic gadgetry.

As its capabilities continue to grow, the standard PDA device is changing. In this article, we take look at the PDA -- where it's been, how it is converging with other devices, and where it's headed. We also examine how PDAs work and give you some pointers on how to select one.

NE Teleconference
Hi Everyone:
I am planning to have the NE teleconference on May 5 at 7PM CST. Only two individuals preferred 4-28. I will be asking for feedback from those who are unable to participate on May 5. The questions I am asking will be: 1. What technology skills or applications do you feel would enhance your current or future practice? 2. What barriers do you have that prevent you from attaining these skills or purchasing these applications? 3. Do you have a budget for technology?
3. What are your strengths or assets related to technology?
Thanks - have a great day!

A message from your colleague:
Hi all,
Since this is a group specifically interested in the internet, I thought
you all would be interested in a super teleclass I took yesterday on
search engine optimization. I've taken several of this woman's classes
before and have always enjoyed them immensely.
So, I wanted to share the link she sent us after the class. She said
this link will only be good until May 9th, so get on there and at least
save the links as soon as you can!

She has another (very short) class on the 27th, which is on How to Write
Great Text for Your Website.
