Every month, Eric, my college student son, has about 5 pages of text messages on the phone bill. and just one page of phone calls. The cell is his only phone. I use facebook to follow his antics, and contact him mostly by text. When I started this digitization project in 1996, it took me three weeks to teach my student worker the ropes. She was an extremely bright person, but had no experience in PhotoShop. The next one took about a week. I usually keep student workers their entire college career, so I have not had many, but I can see the progression of computer skills. My current student worker took about two hours to train, and that was mostly in our filing system. Most homework assignments in this university are submitted online via a system called blackboard. Every room in every residence hall has broadband internet, hardwire and wireless. The Library and several academic buildings are networked for wireless. They have grown up in it and even those of us who make our living doing computer stuff are amazed at their ability. -- Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com http://sonc.stumbleupon.com/ Natchitoches, Louisiana USA
