Have I got a deal for you... TBCS is helping to support this
worthwhile endeavor. Not only are both Chuck Vroman and
Dave Dockery speaking at the conference, not only will TBCS have a
membership recruitment table there, BUT we have arranged for a free
gift for all of our members who attend. Sounds pretty good
doesn't it?
It gets better! We will pay the
$15 registration fee for the first 20 members who email their
reservations to the Club Secretary.
Details will be found under Educational Opportunities

Monthly Meeting this Tuesday night
at the Largo Cultural Center
Monica Schmitt and her brother,
Joe, did their iPod & iTunes seminar a few months ago at our
Resource Center. The audience enjoyed it so much that they asked us
if we could get them to repeat it for a monthly meeting and they agreed to
return.
Initially, I was concerned that the
audience might be too limited for this - hey, I don't have an iPod myself.
However, it's instructive to learn how to store data with a utility like
iTunes (which is free), and how to download music. You might be
surprised at what you will learn from their presentation.
Bonus: Many of you attend the
pre-meeting meeting. Bill De Lucia will provide answers to
your questions, AND Doc will show you how to configure Google to
provide a variety of free and useful utilities.
