This book has been divided into three parts. The
first part is what a development worker should consider when attempting to introduce computers or related technology into a school, village,... More > business, or government office. There are many obstacles that I wish I hadn’t overlooked in my two years in The Gambia, and I hope that my stories will help my replacements be more
successful. Sustainability, accountability, and relevance make or break your project. I found that the most difficult thing to do was to identify the most important needs of the community, work with them to meet those needs, and leave behind successors who will be able to solve future problems with success.
The second part is an outline of approaches that would benefit any organization trying to orient its technical workers and volunteers for the job ahead.
The third part is a hands-on reference guide for keeping older computers working.< Less

And he has a lot of it. Tony is, after all, a powerful wizard—not that magical tech support demands much. That’s okay, though. That’s how Tony likes it.
Fortunately, Fat Tony doesn't always get what he wants. Dinner with his grandmother, an old and dangerous spell, and a blind date with an FBI agent are about to stretch his patience, his abilities, and his heart beyond any stretching they’ve experienced before. If he’s lucky, he’ll manage to keep his grandmother out of jail, prevent California from falling into the ocean, and—most importantly—impress the girl.< Less
