Here at Techstravaganza, it is my goal to make the site as easy as possible to use, as well as ensure you are able to find exactly what you are looking for as quickly as possible.
As of today, I have done exactly that!
When you first visit, http://www.techstravaganza.ca, you will see the link to the Tutorials category is now the second link at the top of the page. This is the single place all tutorials are posted.
There is now a Search section on the page, which is the first link!
This allows you to find specific content when you know what you are looking for.
For example, you can even type in “Thunderbird On the PC” (without the quotes.) It will bring up all the newsletters relating to that search criterea.
Give it a try!
If you have any questions, or run into problems using it, please email me at: alimoosa19@gmail.com
If you are receiving this by email, you can also respond to the email with this newsletter, and it will come directly to me.
This is just a quick update to the agenda for our workshop for Wednesday, October 1, 2025. The original plan was to begin taking a look at podcast player apps on the iPhone and the iPad starting on Wednesday, October 1. However, as iOS 26 has just ben released 3 weeks ago, we will instead take a look at what is new in iOS 27, both in the operating system itself and various VoiceOver enhancements that have been introduced. As such, our multi-part series on podcast player apps will begin on Wednesday, October 8. Please also note that I will be away on Wednesday, October 1 due to a prior commitment. As such, next Wednesday’s tutorial will be under the capable guiance of Ali Moosa. As always, thank you so much Ali for your help and support, and I look forward to being back with you all on Wednesday, October 8!
I would like to take this opportunity to inform you, due to prior commitments, Techstravaganza will take place from 12:30 PM to 2:30 PM on the following Wednesdays:
This is just a friendly reminder that our upcoming Techstravaganza will take place tomorrow afternoon (Wednesday, August 20, 2025, from 1:00 to 3:00 PM Eastern. Techstravaganza is an ongoing weekly workshop, so you will not need to register every week. Please note that all sessions will be recorded for your reference and your listening enjoyment.
Special Announcement:
As Google Meet is experiencing ongoing issues preventing many iPhone and iPad users from being able to join in the meetings using the Google Meet app, we have sent in countless bug reports to Google, however the issue has yet to be addressed. As such, we have made a permanent switch back to Zoom which will take effect starting this Wednesday, August 20, and will no longer be returning to Google Meet after this switch.
In order to join in tomorrow’s workshop, please use the following conference information.
Siena Trigiani is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

I will still post the recordings on the day of the workshops, but in the evening. They will be up no later than 10:00 PM Eastern.
I received a question about this, so I felt I would take some time to address it.
The question was brought up, if the Whatsapp Group will replace the email reminders.
Nope they will not. It only another platform, reminders and updates will be posted.
As you are subscribed to the Newsletters in your email, you will receive updates there first.
Techstravaganza also has a Whatsapp Group.
If you are on Whatsapp, please join the group if you are not part of it already.
If you do not have the app or a Whatsapp account, and you would like to set one up to interact with the group, feel free to reach out, and one of us will give you a hand.
