Editor uploads story live during talk to group

BUCKS Free Press editor Steve Cohen gave a live demonstration today to the Parkinson's Disease Society on how to upload stories to this website.
Steve was guest speaker at the Amersham and High Wycombe branch of the society at Cedar Barn in Cedar Avenue, Hazlemere.
Using a laptop, he showed around 50 members how easy it is to send stories to this site from anywhere in the world.
And he also uploaded a picture taken on his mobile phone.
"I was nervous because I am useless with technology and thought I would fall flat on my face," he admitted.
Steve typed this story live as members ran through a brief AGM discussion.
"My lousy inaccurate typing is now up there uncensored for all the world to see," he admitted.
"But this isn't just a stunt. I wanted to prove to an older group of people just how accessible and easy the internet is. And I wanted to show them there's nothing to be scared of."
