I have over 25 years of personal computer experience as an IT manager in a professional environment, the last 15 of which have been in the Legal/Court Reporting industries. I know computers inside and out. I began selling and servicing personal computers when they first became available for home use (Does anyone remember the IBM PC Jr – the one IBM promoted with the Charlie Chaplin ads, or the Apple IIe/IIc?). I’ve managed a couple of computer stores and then moved into IT support and management at several companies. With my background, I can offer practical solutions and information on many topics as it pertains to your use of computers. This will include tips and recommendations on security, browsers, programs, hardware, etc. I’ll include links to some of my favorite sites and programs. I will help explain technology in a non-technological way. If you have anything in particular that you want covered, please let me know. You can visit my website at http://www.askbillfirst.com and fill out the contact form on the Contact page. You can also read my monthly newsletters from here as well. Thank you.

  1. Hey Bill,

    Nice stuff! But it should be called, “Ask Mr. Bill.” ; ) Looks really great. Cute phote too!

    So.. what do you think about Vista’s built in search engine? I think it’s a pretty cool feature and you don’t have to download anything. Here’s a link for more info, in case you’d like to add a blurb about it.

    Great seeing you yesterday. Hope you found the classes helpful. Since this was our first Expo, feel free to share your honest critique with me.

    I’ll check in periodically to see what’s new on Ask Mr. Bill!

  2. This is a great site, Bill. It’s the Everything-You-Need-To-Know-But-Didn’t-Know-Whom-To-Ask place to go.

    For those who struggle to find answers on the internet, I suggest you make it easy on yourself and just Ask Bill First.

    I really like that Blogroll.

    I added your site to my Favorites . . . in Firefox, of course.

  3. Hello Bill,

    I am a regular visitor of your blog and have found your information to be very good and helpful…

    I currently maintain and up and coming blog, called “What’s On My PC…” at whatsonmypc.wordpress.com

    Due to our interests and blog content being similar in, would you be interested in a link exchange? I currently have your blog listed on my site; however, I will further hightlight it on the blogroll (or Launch Pad) as I call it.

    Great job your site!

    Rick at What’s On My PC…
