SPECIAL WORKSHOP WITH DROPBOX AUSTRALIA VOLUNTEERS

Dropbox opened their new Sydney office in 2014.  The workers at Dropbox decided that they would like to donate their time to give back to the community, and Account Executive Emma King contacted Parramatta Computer Pals to ask how they could help our Club.  

As a result, on Friday Emma and her colleagues (Shing, Tony and Harry) came to Parramatta to run a workshop on uploading and sharing photos from smart phones and tablets using Dropbox and Facebook.  Seventeen members of Parramatta Computer Pals attended the workshop.  

 Emma took us step by step through how to set up a Dropbox account, download the Dropbox app on our devices and computer desktop, create a folder, upload some pictures to Dropbox, and then share them with friends.  At each step the Dropbox team moved around to help us individually (and it was quite a challenge, as we had many different devices, operating systems and levels of expertise).  


At the end of the workshop we thanked the Dropbox team and presented them with Club mugs in appreciation of their time and effort.

  1. It looks like you all had an interesting and rather intense workshop. Full marks to Shing, Tony & Harry for helping our Parramatta Computer Pals Seniors to understand how to use Dropbox. How kind of Emma King to make the offer. Great news Deborah.
