That pretty much sums up my relationship with technology. Just as I think I've caught up, that I am semi-competent I suddenly find out things have moved on several paces and I'm back to knowing nothing at all.
It's exhausting and my tired old brain is addled trying to stay on top of it all.
I've thought on making a website, using one of those free sites of course (free being in my budget at the moment). It all looked fairly simply but after about five minutes I gave up. I knew where I wanted to go but damn it if I could actually get there!
One point of satisfaction tonight came as I discovered the uses of the block button on certain social media. There is someone who has caused a lot of grief amongst members of an organisation I am involved in. While I am luckily not tied into their disagreement the sheer brass-neck of the person had annoyed me. I can't help it. This whole sense of injustice, over people standing up and taking ownership of their actions, whether they be dick actions or not, drives me to distraction.
I was once again in danger of blundering in, of having everyone side with this person against the bad person picking on her. And she is the type to greatly enjoy that, indeed it is part of this whole grief manifesto she has going.
Block, block, blockity, block.
And now she is no more!
I can merrily go about my business without that thorn digging in every time I see another "look at me, I'm this organisations best thing ever" post.
Yippee!
I need to do this more often. I get bogged down with people like that. Now technology has offered me a way out, probably could have done with finding it out earlier but never mind. I'm there and no doubt come tomorrow there will be another thousand things I could also do that I will find out about...someday...
