March 9, 2009 Meeting

— Local Network Syncing and Sharing… and a TMUG Stimulus Package

TMUG's Program Vice President Smythe Richbourg will present the March program devoted to local network syncing and sharing. Some of the apps Smythe is planning to show us are Fliq, SyncBook, FileChute, File Magnet, EverNote, & Jing.

As usual, we will start with a Question & Answer session moderated by Bob Chandler, who coincidentally was the iMac Give–Away winner. The discussion is sure to focus on the newly updated products that Apple announced on March 3.

New this month is that we have arranged for the food area in the Gathering Place to be open from 6:00 to 7:00 pm. This will give attendees a chance to get some food & / or drinks either before the meeting or during the Q&A. 4 choices will be available by pre-order for $5 each:

  • Chef salad & cookie
  • Veggie salad & cookie
  • Turkey & cheese sandwich, potato salad, pasta cup or chips, & cookie
  • Ham & cheese sandwich, potato salad, pasta cup or chips, & cookie

We will need to know if you're planning to get food beforehand, because they will only fix enough for those who pre-order (and maybe a little more, just in case). Contact Smythe directly with your preferred meal choice before 5 pm on Thursday. Pay directly to the café at the meeting. This is the first time we have experimented with food at the meeting. We'll see how it works, and hopefully there will be few if any glitches.

Oh, and one more thing… XCom is announcing a TMUG Stimulus Package – we will be raffling an iPod Touch! Tickets are projected to be $5 each or 3 for $10. As a reminder, TMUG raffles may be entered by members & non-members alike.

There were only 48 entries in the TMUG Stimulus Package iPod Touch raffle.
The lucky winner was Chuck Nall! Congratulations Chuck!

(Attendance at the March meeting was 38, including 2 guests.)
