Computer Booters

Helen Seaton, Publicity Director

On Wednesday, May 5, 2021, Hewie Poplock will give a presentation entitled Getting Better Google Search Results, at the next virtual meeting of the Computer Booters club beginning at 10 a.m.

Hewie’s presentation will show various ways to get better results faster when using Google. You will learn many tips and tricks to help in your Google search. He will demonstrate numerous ways to get information quickly without having to go to websites, but get the answer in your search results.

Hewie is a former Association of Personal Computer User Groups (APCUG) Vice President and currently serves as the Windows SIG leader and APCUG Rep for the Central Florida Computer Society. He is also a member of the Sarasota Technology Users Club Board of Directors. Hewie attended his first user group meeting armed with a yellow legal pad and 21 questions. Although only four of them got addressed at that first meeting, he knew that computer user groups were an invaluable source of help, information, and friendship. That was in 1982 at an Osborne User group. He has been active in the user group movement ever since. He likes to help computer users and give back much of what he has learned over the years.

We will continue to have virtual Computer Booters meetings on Zoom, on the first Wednesday of the month until we can meet face-to-face again. Our club has many things to offer members, such as free technical assistance, information about new programs, how to use the programs, Microsoft classes, and access to talks and conferences on a variety of topics from APCUG. The APCUG classes are free and can be attended using your computer, tablet, or phone, with the Zoom.us app. These classes are an exciting benefit for club members. More information and help are available in the newsletter and on our website at computerbooters.org. For more information, contact [email protected] or 480-895-2196.
