Moving files




Just when it seemed like the need for email was dead, an outage occurs, leaving many searching for alternatives.

In library-land, without email to assist with research needs, at the Ask Me desk we use iChat or texting.

To move files, we might use a flash-drive or eDisk. In general, when moving files, its best to use a local drive or file server, instead of email attachments, since email has a way of messing up file formats.

While the ups-and-downs of email can make people crazy, its good to know that there are effective alternatives to get help and move files.
