May 16 - And The Guest Author Is . . .

WANT TO DO SOMETHING REALLY CREATIVE
WITH YOUR OLD PHOTOGRAPHS?

Then join Shades for the May 16 Edition of Friday From The Collectors when Denise Olson of Family Matters discusses a creative process for turning old photographs into art.

Denise, whose Family Matters blog was named one of Family Tree Magazine's 101 Best Websites for 2007, offers technology and research support to family historians. She also writes about her personal family history and traditions sprinkled with lots of local color in the popular Moultrie Creek blog. Our Digital Diva, Denise is one of my personal favorites!

A native Floridian, Denise has family ties from Texas to Virginia. When she enlisted in the Air Force she got her first taste of computer technology. An assignment as a technical instructor sent her on a path of teaching and technical support that has adapted to many technology changes over the years - from mainframe computers to word processors to personal computers, from text-only displays to highly graphical ones.

Today Denise serves as a civilian employee for the National Guard managing the organization’s web sites.

Join Shades Friday 16 May for Denise's article in Friday From The Collectors. I'm really looking forward to what Denise has in store for us. See you then!
