Here's what one workshop participant said:

"I want to say how useful the workshop has been that Helen ran on Dropbox. I am using information I gained to store an extra backup of material I am accumulating for a biography I am writing of my husband (in addition to my flash drives).I have also used it to share photos with friends - much easier than via Facebook. The next step is to put it on the netbook I use when I travel so that I can access the files I need" M.B.
