About the Creative Team

Nan Barber (editor) has worked with the Missing Manual series since its

inception—long enough to remember booting up her computer from a

floppy disk. Email: [email protected].

Nellie McKesson (production editor) spends her spare time doing DIY

home renovation projects on her house and pursuing her love of layout

and template design in InDesign (www.dessindesigns.com).

Julie Van Keuren (proofreader) is a grizzled newspaper veteran turned care￾free freelance editor. She and her husband live in Billings, Montana, with

their sons, Dexter and Michael. In her free time she enjoys swimming, bik￾ing, running, and (hey, why not?) triathlons. Email: [email protected].

Denise Getz (indexer) works on indexes for the Missing Manual series in

the beautiful Mayacamas Mountains of Northern California. She’s also an

avid photographer, hiker, and makes a mean green smoothie. Website:

Acknowledgements

Many thanks go to my editor at Nan Barber, who not only patiently shep￾herded this book through the lengthy writing and publishing process, but

provided valuable feedback and sharpened my prose. Thanks also go to

Brian Sawyer, for making the introduction that ultimately led to this book.

I’d also like to thank all the other folks at O’Reilly who worked on this book,

especially Nellie McKesson for bringing the beautiful finished product to

fruition, Julie Van Keuren for excising errors, and Denise Getz for writing

the index.

And finally, many thanksto my wife Lydia, who put up with being a guinea

pig asI tested out the myriad communicationsfeatures of the Droid 2—no

more automated invitations to dinner in seven different locations at the

same time, I promise!

—Preston Gralla

The Missing Manual Series

Missing Manuals are witty, superbly written guides to computer products

that don’t come with printed manuals (which is just about all of them).

Each book features a handcrafted index; cross-referencesto specific pages

(not just chapters); and RepKover, a detached-spine binding that lets the

book lie perfectly flat without the assistance of weights or cinder blocks.
