“ Windows 10, part 4” 

THE APRIL 25 General Meeting will be a three-part session, starting at 7:15 p.m. The speakers will be Steve Shank, James Gafford, and Marcelino Nogueiro, with John King hanging around to embellish, 
correct and fill in the gaps in any of our answers.

Part I:
When you ask Google a technical question, you can often get frustrated ending up in a forum where people vote on the best answer. Or, after reading several pages of comments, you wonder if it is a 
situation of the blind leading the blind. Tonight we hope to show you a way to get better answers faster. We’ll be looking for some audience questions, of course, and we’ll have some good ones to start.

Part II:
Introduction to Streaming. Whether you want to be a cord cutter to save money, or just get more and better content on demand, streaming is the way to go. We’ll talk about the different devices, how they differ from each other, and how to get them connected properly. 

We’ll also look at the best way to find good content. We will demo a Roku, Chromecast and Amazon Fire TV and maybe others. 

Part III:
Google has announced that Picasa will close on May 1 (well, not exactly, it’s just moving). Replacing it will be the new Google Photos. We’ll take a look at how Google Photos works. 
It’s a little tricky getting started, but we’ll show you how to do the same things with that you used to do with Picasa, and more. You also can get unlimited free photo and video storage and syncing with all types of mobile devices, not just Android

Introduction to Windows 10, Part 4
JOIN JOHN KING during his “Introduction to Windows 10, Part 4” talk 
at 6 p.m., Monday, April 25, before the General Meeting at Greenbrae’s 
Community Room. The main topics will be Cortana, the new digital 
assistant, and the first class on the mail, calendar, contacts (People) and 
to-do lists, notes (OneNote) apps in Windows 10. John will cover:

• Cortana, what she can do and her settings.
• Windows key shortcuts to start programs pinned to the Taskbar.
• The Mail, Calendar, People, and OneNote apps—a first look.
• 
Assessing whether these four apps suit your needs
