Changing Providers

We talk about changing your hosting or email services.

We try to walk you through the minefield of changing providers, whether it be email or web pages.

Second Segment: We point out some of the problems that come up when you change email providers that you may not know about. And then it gets really confusing… Just call us! Harold starts building a gaming machine.

Third Segment: Harold’s new project gets us talking about what you should look for when building a new computer.

We want to know what you want to know. Email us! Let us know how you think we’re doing and what you’d like to hear about. We want to talk about the computer stuff you’re interested in!

We’re on iTunes! Check us out and subscribe to the podcast.

Thanks for listening and don’t forget to write!

Mike and Harold

Email Etiquette

Always say “Please and Thank You” and other Greatest Hits

Don’t forget to write us! computer101@easttexasdailynews.com Harold talks about a new t-shirt he likes. Pong on shirt! thinkgeek.com Mike scoops the News Media by correctly identifying the gun Palin is holding is a pellet gun, not an “AK-47″. Also, we crack on putting marking your email as “high priority”.

Second Segment: We talk about marking your emails for priority (don’t) and the futility of “read receipts”.

Third Segment: Don’t use stationary backgrounds! It doesn’t work like you think! Also, apparently not everybody checks their email every five minutes…. and I don’t get that…

We want to know what you want to know. Email us! Let us know how you think we’re doing and what you’d like to hear about. We want to talk about the computer stuff you’re interested in!
