Tech-Wise Stories by Park Church

How Has Tech-Wise Impacted You? A Call For Submissions from Corinne Karl

The Month Alexa Couldn’t Skip by Kate McLaughlin

“The Wi-Fi is out”. Does that sentence strike fear in your heart? It does for me or at least, it did. One month ago I was minding my own business, re-ordering contacts from my iPad, when I realized that the Wi-Fi was disconnected.
