Computer Group Meeting November 1, 2011

Cancelled 10/31/11

Hi Gang,

We will start the meeting by creating several videos using my camera and adding them to my "Computer Class" folder.

The folder will be copied to a flash drive and the added to each computer being used for class.

We can then produce a "Movie" with pictures, videos and some audio.

This should be fun!
