A short Prologue :
Well, as a female I need to vent a little. Techno Paradise is writing an email and creating a document to be printed and being able to edit - and on and on - yet, could it be that females are perhaps less drawn to the techno "controls" then males? Ten years ago that would have been a valid blogging topic, but not today. Even a professor ( with a Dr. before his name ) I know admits to being "techno" challenged... It occurred to me that when I did get too deep into mp3 files or needing help with high tech recording tools, I had male sources to call =people that would assist, and help me through that driest of dry places - where technology makes little sense to the female brain ... at least the female brain which has turned 50 !! Yet, I sense that today, there are females quite comfortable with the sorting out of html language and the challenge of Audacity "how to's" - so perhaps it's not male or female -it's a factor of age? Hmmm- just accepting the change in mediums perhaps? But...I was among the first to have a laptop in 1995 ... Hmmm again !
Yet, since the course work in Techno Trends in Education , I have had to wade through the process alone and have actually had some success ! So this is a selfish pat on the back..
Creating links and languages -photos with effects..and now the movie. I am, however, hung up with Audacity and mp3 files - so I need to stop venting and get back to the Audacity Instructions and pretend to be a modern girl of 20 something !
Pardon me, back soon.

Hear, hear! And a well-deserved pat on the back it is!
Since you have indeed made some headway into the nebulous world of technology, could you give me a hand? You successfully got a screenshot onto your website, and it looks like you're using Windows. I have yet to get the Print Screen function to do anything other than copy into MSWord! What did you do to get the screenshot to your website?
Thanks!
