As a blogger, I'm fairly geeky. I know enough HTML code to put widgets in my sidebar and enough CSS to place a banner and a background on my blogs. I've even set up password protected wifi in my house, which wasn't as plug and play as the box my router came in promised.
So when a book like How to Be a Geek Goddess: Practical Advice for Using Computers with Smarts and Style
comes along that teaches me something practical like how to make my computer faster, I’m impressed. But if you’re clueless when it comes to anything techie, like cellphones or using social networking sites like Facebook, this book by Christina Tynan-Wood is a must have manual for today's maybe not so technology savvy woman or mom.
Christina, who blogs at GeekGirlfriends, knows that women just want to get things done quickly and don't need all the details on product specs. How to Be a Geek Goddess shows you how to sort out technology decisions without ever having to ask the geeky dude you work with - or are married to. Whether you're buying a computer, looking into Internet phone service, or trying to figure out how to keep your computer safe from viruses, she explains it all in a straightforward way that even your mom will understand.
