@Twelpforce to the rescue – Tech help at your fingertips
Technology is an essential part of our house. We have a 2-to-1 ratio of computers to people, and A.C. doesn’t even use them yet! JAM and I each have a desk top, I have 2 laptops – one ancient dinosaur laptop that (barely) works, and my new one that I use on a daily basis for blogging on the go. And the newest addition to our electronic family is an IPad!!! Now being surrounded by all of these electronics you might think that I might be a technologically savvy… Ha! That is not the case, at all. Push one wrong button on our AVR remote and I have no idea how to turn on the TV or watch a DVD. There is not a day that goes by that we are not using some sort of technology from cell phones and our Wii console to our computers.

| We starting introducing A.C. to technology at a young age! |
But what happens when electronics are not working perfectly? When my internet was down last year for 3 days due to router problems – I turned into a C.R.A.Z.Y. person, there may have even been a few tears. Seriously, I don’t do well when technology is not working the way it is supposed to, and I want it fixed NOW.
The first place I turn when I need some help is the internet, and there is no better place then twitter to get instant helpful answers then from others. Best Buy has made getting help even easier by taking it one step further. They have put together a special team to answer all of your technology questions – @Twelpforce!
