Amy Fitzgerald posted a link to an immensely helpful Google tips article from Time.com in the Ancestry group on Facebook this morning.
In 11 Google Tricks That Will Change the Way You Search, Jack Linshi shares a lot of stuff I would never even have thought of to try in a search engine. If you need to be able to find Internet stuff (who doesn&tsquo;t?), check it out!
Tomorrow, at 2:00p, is the iPad Basics class, focusing on gestures, settings, and basic apps, at Di-No Computers.

David Sparks, over at MacSparky, started out the morning thusly:
I’ve been thinking about the new Apple announcements at this week’s event and have a few random thoughts.
A couple of my favorites:
PYBT: RANDOM THOUGHTS FOLLOWING THE APPLE EVENT for the whole list.
Zach Epstein, over on BGR, has a bad habit of posting lists of cool iPhone/iPad(/iPod Touch)(/Apple Watch) apps that are temporarily free.
Here’s the fine print:
These are paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available for free for a limited time by their developers. There is no way to tell how long they will be free. These sales could end an hour from now or a week from now – obviously, the only thing we can guarantee is that they were free at the time this post was written. If you click on a link and see a price listed next to an app instead of the word “get”, it is no longer free. The sale has ended. If you download the app, you will be charged.

Sorry. I missed the super secret keynote meeting because I was busy telling 3 million people why the chicken crossed the road.
Look deep within yourself and you will find the answer. Especially on September 9.
I can neither confirm nor deny that I am not authorized either to confirm or deny that I cannot disclose anything that you would then have to confirm. In any case, I would deny it. Got it?
Why don’t you check a rumors blog? That’s what I do.
Can you get a hint? No. You may, however, get a what what.
You’re cute when you’re desperate for information.
You’ll have to wait until September 9. I bet you were one of those kids who snuck downstairs to open presents early, weren’t you?
The only hint I can give you right now is a hint of lime. And that there’s a big announcement on September 9.
What, you can’t tell from my colorful wavey words?
OK… here it is: 01000111 01101111 011101 00 01100011 01101000 011 00001
OK. It’s smaller than a Grafalian battle cruiser and bigger than a mote in a Zoltaxian’s eye.
Katie Floyd, of the Mac Power Users Podcast, put an interesting post on her blog yesterday: Sending a Mac In For Service. You must read it. All of it.
She begins thusly:
I’ve been having some trouble with my MacBook Air the past several months and had to send the machine in for service three times this summer. Twice to the local Apple authorized repair shop and then finally to Apple’s Texas repair depot.
Oy!
Her first bit of advice? And I quote: Backup, Backup, Backup. You think? 😀
Make sure to catch the rest of her excellent advice.
