[LOCAL] Fairfax VA 19 May: What Makes the Web Work; PowerPoint Presenter View

[Geof Goodrum]

You are invited to the next meeting of the Washington Area Computer
(WAC) User Group, scheduled on Saturday, May 19th from 12:30 PM to
3:30 PM at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), 4210 Roberts
Road, Fairfax, Virginia. The meeting is free and open to the public.
Preregistration is not required to attend.

The World Wide Web is a modern marvel, bringing information,
entertainment, interaction, communication, and shopping (along with
much else), with the click of a mouse. But what makes it work? How
does a Web browser (Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc.) fetch
information and communicate with the Web? What does a Web server
actually do? The May meeting presentation will "lift the hood" on the
information engine that we all use daily to help us use it better,
faster, and safer.

Also at the May meeting will be a "Learn 30" tutorial about how to use
Microsoft PowerPoint's Presenter View feature, which allows a
presenter to view timing information and detailed notes about
individual slides while the audience sees just key points and
graphics.
