SOB Directory Entry: Simplebyte by David Canfield

Easy as Easy

There are plenty of places on the web to get detailed, highly-technical information on how to use a computer and software. What’s really hard to find is simple information for users who are not experts. David’s blog, Symplebyte.com, is designed for them. His goal is to provide easy-to-use information about computers in a format that is easy to understand.

Notes from Liz: SOB David Canfield’s blog not only lives up to its name–easy to use and understand–it’s also easy on the easy. Every post offers a simple byte of information, in the way a good newsletter on a specific topic might. You could call this the Lifehacker of computer basics–quick snippets on how to use your computer or your software to get more out of them. Though Symplebyte is written in plain language, for beginners, it’s a wealth of those bits of information that, we miss or forget as we leave our beginner status behind. Check out David’s blog, if you don’t need it, some day in the future you will know someone who will, and David is a man worth getting to know.
