There is so much to keep up with in the world of technology today…new apps, new gadgets, new capabilities. We need an expert to sort it all out and make sense of the bleeding edge for us. That’s where Jim Teece, owner of Project A comes in. Jim visits the RVTV studio at the Digital Media Center once a month to update us the latest news…and mostly to show off his newest toys. Jim invites software designers, artists, and local experts from the industry each month for a new edition of Tech Talk, now in it’s 11th year on local cable. An encore presentation of the February Tech Talk will be seen at 6pm tonight on RVTV Channels 9 in Jackson County and 21 in Grants Pass and Josephine County.
