Interesting Internet Finds – WE March 21, 2014

Posted on by

I publish Interesting Internet Finds monthly in the Boca Raton Computer Society’s Boca Bits monthly newsletter, and share them through APCUG‘s PUSH program  with other computer/technology user group newsletter editors.

Each month, I find many more things than I can use, so have decided to start publishing some of those that were not used for the newsletter on this blog most Fridays.

I do not go into much depth about each one, I just put them out there for you to check out yourself.

How to Find a Computer User Group Near You

Posted on by

I was at the 2014 FACUG Spring Technology Conference, March 16, 2014, and while out on a break someone asked how to find a computer user group in another state.

I answered that they should use the APCUG User Group Locator Service (UGLS).

Here is a short (2.15 minute) video, using finding Boca Raton Computer Society as an example.

 

Some Reasons to Find a Computer User Group.

This time of year the snowbirds are leaving, and may want to find a computer user group near their other location.

Maybe you are relocating and need to find a computer user group there.

Or, I use it to see if there are any groups in an area when I am vacationing, so I can check them out.

Feedback

This is my first attempt doing a video like this. Please let me know what you think about it.
