"Alexa explains the home assistant from Amazon while The "Cloud" will cover how to use The "Cloud" in everyday computing. Home Safety is an overview of the new electronic devices to help make you safer at home and Connecting With Your Neighbor covers how to use Nextdoor and Facebook to connect with your neighbors."
