I mostly don’t mind being a technical layperson when it comes to computers and everything IT related.  I should be an expert geek as my father has been a computer programmer since the late ’60’s.  I remember my mother making Christmas wreaths out of key punch cards if you want to know what that means.  It’s times like these though where I get frustrated with not knowing much.

Here’s a short list of things I can’t figure out currently:

• Firefox 3 won’t let me post photos in Wordpress (something about a Rich Text Editor)
• I need to password protect a portion of a new website we built for the soccer team, and I can’t understand technically what the options are
• Doing an email newsletter using a emarketing tool, have problems and not sure how to figure it out
• Need to upgrade the two G5 Macs we have to get latest Adobe Creative suite up and running, not sure if I need to get new hardware or if I’m good

I’m reaching out to my buddy skidoo on one of these, but any nerds out there feel free to ping me in comments or at csquard@gmail.com.
