Client calls: Hi, I can't find the site you said you put up for us
Me: did you enter the url I told you correctly - maybe there was a spelling error?
Client: No, I know I entered it correctly.
Me: Well I just checked the site and it works for me. Can you spell the url - you are entering
Client: look I know I'm entering it correctly - but when I hit 'search' it says it can't be found
Me: When you hit search?
Client: yes, when I enter into the Yahoo search the web box and hit search it comes up with some results but not the site
Me: oh *goes on to explain about the address bar and how you just have to enter the url and hit return ....*
but maybe if they've never been online much -i've had this happen with several newbie clients - but here's the worst thing
-2 days later
Client calls: uh I seem to have lost the site you made again
Me: are you using the yahoo search tool again
Client: I'm not supposed to
Me: *holds phone at a distance and slaps head* - remember the address bar and explains about bookmarking
Client: oh ya right
I'm expecting another call like this any day now. How do some of these people operate a vehicle or get their microwave or VCR to work?
