computer backups, Google habits with grocery shopping, and

About the Author She was just an average mom, juggling laundry, school snack day
and muddy soccer shoes, until a book on technology propelled her
head first into the world of blogs, video games and digital
doodads. Find out more about Sharon Miller Cindrich -

informed and, of course, have fun and stay connected.
