Computer Basics

ComputerGuruComputer Basics and the world of the Computerguru.

On a professional level technology is a big part of my life, and has been for many years. In 1998, while teaching technology for a community college I decided to take the construction of a technology web site a little more seriously. After searching for an appropriate name for the site, I was surprised to find out that www.computerguru.net was available, and registered it.

Orginally when done as a flat HTML site content was split into two sections.  The first section was the Webmaster's Portal for self help and tutorials for learning web building, general technology and the Internet.

The technology study guides and tutorials portal containing Study Guides and Tutorials on Basic Technology and Networking Technology was the second section. Initially just used to store some notes, I tried to maintain it for use in teaching networking basics. I did not do anything to market or promote this area, and amazingly the internet has found it, and uses it, as I receive positive feedback from all over the world about my technology study guides.

The topics here are presented more from a personal "lessons learned" perspective than a text book perspective. I am reworking the old content and mixing it in with the new as time permits. I hope to do my best to maintain the theme, "Geek Speak Made Simple."
