To my grandparents, I must have looked like a techie.

To a techie, I look like a novice.

I know just enough to get by, and no more than that. In other words, I'm competent but not a whiz.

Most of us, it's safe to say, aren't techies.

That's why, when people sign up for this list, I give them an opportunity to pick up a nice course I offer on the tech side of running an online business. That course makes everything seem easy.

Likewise, tomorrow we're holding a live session online about how to protect yourself against online thieves and snoops and creeps, in either the public or private sector -- and it won't require you to be a techie.

I promise you will be able to do the five things our host, Glenn Meder, recommends.

But make sure you reserve your spot right away:
