Learning in Reno
I arrived in Reno, Nev., Sunday afternoon and here’s what I’ve learned:
You can play the slots in the airport.
Taxi drivers are the same in every city.
And the views of the Sierra Nevada Mountains are spectacular.

Behind the wall is a busy street called Mae Anne Avenue
But that’s not the point. I’m here to learn.
I’m one of 14 fellows at the Maynard Institute’s Multimedia Editing Program. It’s a six-week immersion program that promises to teach me everything from blogging, social networking strategies to video. I’m hoping it will allow me to bring better content to the readers.
But I’m also hoping to have some fun along the way.
I’ll be posting updates on things I learn, see, taste, drink and experience while in “The Biggest Little City in the World.”
