06-22-16 - Mankind Rising" & McClintock's "Your 'Puter, Part II

A brief look at the latest Science, technology, then...

Last week David McClintock's "App Show and Tell" opened the door for many of us to the possibilities of greater convenience and efficiency when using smartphones, laptops and tablets across the range of operating systems. (See attached files, compliments of David.)

David may show us more innovations this Wednesday.

We will also view a video depicting the chance evolutionary events that brought us here to this meeting.

It was a pack filled session last week; we did not get a chance to look at Facebook, a brief introduction to its advantages and drawbacks; we shall try this Wednesday if there is time. Look forward to seein' y'all.
