The MUG Event Calendar for March 8: Bill Atkinson, Bryan Chaffin, and Vern Seward of TMO, Apple’s Dave Marra, Chuck Joiner, Tropical Software, Mapdiva, SoundTree, YELP, and More
One of the most star-studded schedules we’ve seen in quite some time is on deck this week on The MUG Event Calendar.
Original Macintosh Team member and nature photographer Bill Atkinson will visit a California group to show off his latest project while Apple Senior System Engineer Dave Marra will present to a New Jersey group. The Mac Observer will dominate two different groups this week when Bryan Chaffin talks to a Texas group and Vern Seward addresses a Florida group. MacVoices producer and host Chuck Joiner will virtual visit a Washington group, Tropical Software’s James Lee will grace a Florida group with his presence, Jill Saligoe-Simmel from Mapdiva will demo their mapping utility, Ortelius, to an Indiana group, the folks from YELP will visit a California group, and Jason Panucci of SoundTree will visit a New York group.
Other topics on this week’s schedule include several Macworld 2010-themed presentations, iMovie, GPS systems, Photoshop Elements 8, Skype, Facebook, MobileMe and more.
