- Isadore of Seville, known as Schoolmaster of the Middle Ages, is also the patron saint of computer users.
Born c.560 at Cartagena, Spain, he lived centuries before technology, but was proclaimed Doctor of the Church by Pope Benedict XIV in 1722, and became the leading candidate for patron of computer users and the Internet in 1999. Initially a poor student, Isadore gave the problem over to God and became one of the most learned men of his time.
It's good to know St. Isadore is watching over us.
Of course, I wasn't actually looking for a patron saint.I found it while looking for something else. Isn't that often the path to information these days?
