You have made it this far, so you might want to skip the basics.

Starting out on the web

These guides are designed to help you with the technology. 

For those new to browsing

Looks at techniques to minimise the time on-line and explains what the web stores on your computer. You thought you had secrets...

Email

Everybody, including you, is doing it but this delves into the technology for the curious and the furious.

Attachments

We are not talking romantic liaisons but what that paperclip icon on the toolbar is for and how to use it.

Looking after your Files

Turning your manuscript into manageable chunks to work on and send.

Picture Technologies

Explains why there are so many different formats and what they are for.

Economical Printing

Save a few trees and produce a manuscript you are able to lift. And have you considered renovating an old computer?

Turning typescripts into computer files

Scanning and Optical Character Recognition not really explained but demystified. It's easy, honest.

Microsoft learning centre

This offers some free and some paid-for lessons on recent programmes. Worth checking it out.
