Apple User Group Bulletin - October 15, 2019
......................................................................
October Featured Vendor: Joe Kissell of Joe on Tech and Take Control BooksThis month’s featured vendor is Joe Kissell, co-publisher (with his wife Morgen Jahnke) of Joe on Tech and Take Control Books, a senior contributor to Macworld, prolific author and long time user group supporter. Joe On Tech guides provide friendly, comprehensive and up-to-date advice on important tech topics. Take Control ebooks cover much more detail than a magazine article but are shorter, more focused, and more timely than a typical printed book. Both bring you savvy, real-world advice on how to get the most out of your Apple devices and software.
Be sure to check out this month’s user group discounts for a generous offer from Joe Kissell for both publications.

https://appleusergroupresources.com/Meeting Idea: Apple ArcadeAre your members curious about
Apple Arcade? The people who created the games that are part of Apple Arcade have woven artistry, curiosity and a lot of heart into a curated selection of fascinating and fresh ways to delight players. From
The Enchanted World, a metaphor for a child growing up in a time of war, where the player uses puzzles and challenges to restore a collapsing fairyland, to Borderleap’s
Patterned puzzle pieces that must be arranged to complete charming pictures, the post-apocalyptic
Overland road trip adventure game, and the card-based
Card of Darkness, with puzzles featuring hand-drawn characters with a sense of humor, there is something to delight every player.
