Going 21st Century

Duh.
Also my big sausage-like fingers were designed to play Rachmaninoff, not type on some miniscule micro-keyboard, so using the Internet at this point is a drag.
At some future point I can see how the thing might be fun, but it’s going to take a week or so of playing with it which I can’t spare right now: I have something like 8,000 words to pound out over the next two days. Deadlines, deadlines, deadlines. Boring subject matter but they are paying me a lot. In the meantime, my life is on hold.
