As a geek who started off as a librarian, headed into the world of IT for many years and has just wandered back into libraries (gladly), I can relate to a lot of them. The top article, in particular (How to help someone use a computer ), I can't recommend highly enough. Its principles will help anyone trying to set up a training session on something as basic as "How to search the web using Google", let alone anything more technical. Good stuff. These are fabulous.

This is a subject that I grapple with on a daily basis. As such, I was incredibly interested in reading through all of the different articles and posts - and spent quite a bit of time doing so. One of my favorites was a link to an article entitled How to help someone use a computer by Phil Agre. This article has some great tips about helping people use computers that I think all techies should review often in order to maintain a good relationship with users. Being a techie (and a user) can be difficult - and there is a definite divide between those who understand computers and technology and those who do not. As the primary means of technical support for staff in my library, I am often painfully aware of this technological divide. I have worked hard - very hard to try and bridge that divide.
