End of the Blog - birth of the Website

Anyone visiting this blog will notice that no update has been made for a long time. My efforts were re-directed to building a website based on Joomla! CMS software. This was a big challenge that sucked up more time than I expected.

Meanwhile, the wifi network over our community was upgraded using Open-Mesh technology with Robin software, to replace Meraki which went proprietary. That gave us better control of what was happening with the network and at a better price point. Open-Source is the way to go for retirees and seniors. There's lots of help via forums and updates that don't bankrupt you.

This is the last blog in this series. Our next effort is to set up training courses for seniors and retirees in our adult lifestyle community. There's no point blogging and posting on websites if the old folks can't access because their computers are gummed up with spyware and viruses or locked up because they haven't figured out how to close Firefox tabs.

So, here's goodbye. Happy computing!
You're never too old, until you're cold.
