Re: Way off topic - Volunteering
This showed up in one of my emails. They are looking. http://www.computerworld.com/cwi/story/0,1199,NAV47_STO63804,00.html "Owsley, Kenneth" wrote: You know, I have experienced the same thing, I don't know what it is.

If you are in Canada, you can try to look up CAP sites. Which is Community Access Points for internet. Neat idea. I volunteered to set one up, it's working pretty well.

Way off topic - Volunteering
Hi everyone, I am looking to find a way to volunteer my time to assist non-profits or similar organizations that need technical assistance or maybe be a technical tutor or resource at a community center, etc. I knows this sounds crazy but my early attempts to find these opportunities near my local community have come up empty. Does anyone have any suggestions on how they have gone about this or similar things.
