My own family inspired me to create Digital Family Album Basics. I live thousands of miles from many of the people I know and love and yet, thanks to my computer, these days I don't feel so far away.

That's why I wrote Digital Family Album Basics, to help you share stories and photos with elegance and ease, whether your loved ones live down the street or across the globe.

Message from the author

Thanks to technology, we can communicate faster than ever before, but for me it's not about computers -- it's about what you can do with them. That's why I call myself a "techy translator." I've combined my journalism skills and my background as the author of ten books about the Internet to help you create a living history for your family. My goal is to help you capture, create, and share your own digital treasures, without having to worry about the technical details.

Designed for people of any age

Following the simple instructions and using the templates included with the book, people of any age and skill level will quickly and easily learn to create a wide range of projects.

New parents can make digital baby albums, customized storybooks, and “Look at our new baby!” Web sites.
Scrapbookers can create beautiful digital designs, complete with fancy text and graphics, and find tips and tricks for scanning and preserving oversized scrapbook pages.
Grandparents can make genealogy charts for their grandchildren or design personalized calendars featuring special family photos, dates, and memories.
Families can make invitations, newsletters, and Web sites to promote reunions and other events.
Kids can make virtual greeting cards for special occasions, create multimedia projects about their sports victories, design family history projects, and build Web sites featuring family pets, favorite music stars, or hobbies.
