Are you curious about computers and want to learn how to navigate the digital world like a pro? This August, the Mentor Public Library has you covered with four exciting and completely free computer classes!

Whether you’re connecting with friends or showcasing your culinary masterpieces, this class guarantees a fun learning experience!

But that’s not all! The College of Optometry and Computer Science is busy conducting fascinating research on specialty lenses designed to tackle nearsightedness, or myopia. It’s quite impressive how the realms of healthcare and technology can intersect, all aimed at enhancing our visual experience with the screens we love. While you’re learning about Facebook and other computer tools, it’s essential to consider how clearer vision can lead to better computer usage, leading to a healthier, more connected lifestyle.

Speaking of connections, a recent study from Washington State University Vancouver has made some buzz— researchers are experimenting with creating computer components using honey! Yes, you heard that right! Honey, with its unique properties, is believed to not only speed up computer functionality but also make them cleaner. Imagine a world where your computer runs faster and is sweetened by nature itself. It sounds like something straight out of a quirky science fiction novel, but it’s happening right here, right now!

In conclusion, as we dive into the world of Facebook and groundbreaking optical research, we are reminded of the sweet possibilities that lie ahead in the realm of technology. Fun fact: Did you know honey doesn’t spoil? It’s been found in ancient tombs, still edible! And if that isn’t intriguing enough, consider this— the specialty lenses being researched at the College of Optometry could reshape how we perceive digital environments, making our screen time not just enjoyable but also healthier! Get ready for a butter-smooth connection between tradition and technology!
