I received the same email twice this week and I am betting some of you did also. One from a relative and another from a friend of a friend of a friend along with 50+ other people who were copied on it. Now right off you need to think about it. When you get an…
Thanks for the emails regarding last week’s column. I always appreciate hearing from you readers. So, thanks for reading Double Click! This week I am going to talk about an interesting site that I put off using for several years. There was really nothing wrong with it but I just didn’t "get it". I was…
I receive questions about online Bibles and being a Christian I am familiar with a couple of the sources out there. Here are two that I am familiar with and currently use. One is a source for most anything in the "study" category that you could need. The other is a great source to help…

My favorite feature (which was also available in Vista, though not nearly as robust or accurate as in W7) is being able to…
The column that was censored. If you are one of my regular readers you realize that this column was not in the DNR today. They contacted me before press time and said that they thought it was too advanced and could cause people to mess up their computers. All of these commands are available in…
( or Electronic books vs. Paper/Printed books) Several weeks ago I wrote about my wife’s e-ink Nook from Barnes and Noble. I was surprised by the number of responses. I had a small number asking why I did not write about the Amazon Kindle or some of the other e-readers. The reason is that…
