Are you looking for a presenter for your next meeting?

We are Tampa-area hobby genealogists who also happen to work in the software industry. We have used our knowledge of software to present our own family research in various formats and forums. And we can show you how to do it too.

We offer a number of presentations and a book-related workshop. Most of our presentations revolve around using one or more Microsoft products to accomplish a genealogy-related task. Lately, we've been using lots of Google applications too.

So check out our presentation list and see if there's something we can do to help your members. When you find a presentation you're interested in, email us at info@technology-tamers.com.

Internet Explorer Hint: Auto Complete Drop-Down

Description: You’re on one web page and you want to go to another page…a page you visit all the time.
Suggestion: You can always start typing the address. Or, you can use the drop-down menu to select the address.

Click the drop-down arrow in the toolbar beside the address and a list appears. Use your cursor to point to an entry in the list and click it. The new web page appears.

  1. In IE 9 and above, the autocomplete list has been diminished to show only 5 recent entries. TO restore the autocomplete to show more than 5 URLs, you can go to internet options and uhckeck favorites and history from autocomplete options.
