Teach Yourself Computer With Online Educational Sites

http://www.gcflearnfree.org/

Yesterday an older friend mentioned she was thinking of taking a computer class and said excitedly, "It's only $25 a month!" to which I replied, "Well, I would be glad to share with you and help you learn free of charge." Needless to say, she was overjoyed.

There are many who would love to have a computer and be able to operate it. They desire to learn but without the knowledge of where to go to find help or just how to begin.

As I began thinking about where to begin teaching my friend, I remembered this hub and knew it was here I could go to find the basics of where to begin a course in the basics of computer.

In the old days a man who saved money was a miser; nowadays he’s a wonder.

The waste of money cures itself, for soon there is no more to waste.

Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat money.
-Cree Indian Proverb
