I don't know how many times you personally have to be told the list was created to cover genealogy AND computers AND related subjects. Everyone else seems to get it. >From the RWR: Try GEN-NEWBIE-L. If you are new to computers or genealogy, consider GEN-NEWBIE mailing list. This is an extremely active list that generates many messages. For more information about it see: http://www.rootsweb.com/~newbie/ *** Overwhelmed by all the geek-speak and techno-babble? Check out these sites: Kat's Tips on Computers and Scanners: http://freepages.computers.rootsweb.com/~kthompson/ Brian's Basic Computer Tasks http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~besley/basic.html *** Keith (KAT) is still with Gen-Newbie, Brian has moved on to other things, we miss him, but wish him well in his new life mostly away from the computer and on the golf course . I am well aware that Rootsweb is for genealogy. I was among the early contributors to the cooperative. But there is *no* internet genealogy if a newcomer cannot work properly with a computer and the web. Elaine > By the way, Rootsweb is for genealogy.
