Describe your intended audience in terms of the organization they work for and their position or title.

As mentioned before, everyone uses computer networks, so my audience is people of all types of professions and fields.

Describe your intended audience in terms of their needs for or interest in the information you plan to include in this writing project.
Many people use computers and are users in a network, but they don't fully understand how it works. They don't know that this type of resource is available for them at home. These instructions will help them see how it all works.

My audience can use this information to learn a little bit more about computer networks and become more comfortable while using these resources.

Describe the technical background of your intended audience--what do they know and not know about your topic? what are their technical limitations in relation to this writing project?
Many people have basic computer knowledge, but that's about it. They don't know how to share a printer or files across a network. I'm guessing their biggest limitation would be not being comfortable with new technology. They just need to start using it and seeing how easy it is to use in order to reach that comfort zone.
