Let's call it 'Internet Mating'

The internet is a daunting place.  I'll go so far as to say 'scary' from my point of view.   Scary in the sense that I own a Mac, an iPad, an iPod Touch, which are all good things, perhaps enviable things to own.  My problem is I am no expert in using them.  I understand the basics; the bits and pieces, the odds and sods, the right buttons to push (so to speak) one needs to paper over the cracks and make it look to the outside world that I actually know what the hell I'm doing!
