IMHO - Meeting Topics
I have found that I need to learn new ways to cope with the user groups issues now that Cowtown MUG has shrunk in size.
Our first issue was getting a less expensive meeting location. Currently we are meeting at an Apple VAR in Fort Worth. That saves us $50 per month we were paying for a meeting site for most of the last 15 years or so.
The next issue was to find new ways to promote the group. I believe I have found a way to get our name into the local newspaper on a monthly basis in their calendar.
The next issue is a recurrent one. What do we have for meeting topics. One of our club founders was an Apple Genius for several months. He currently is doing a series on trouble shooting Leopard.
We have been asked to do meetings on iPhoto, Safari vs Firefox and others that members can present. I am wondering what you are doing for your meetings. I don't think we can provide a large enough audience for vendors since we rarely have more than 20 in attendance.
Again, please let me now what you are doing.
Thanks
Lynn
