THE MUG CENTER TEAM WANTS TO MEET YOU AT MACWORLD EXPO
Macworld Conference and Expo is the time of year when old friends get
together, and new friends meet. The MUG Center Team is looking forward to
both next week, and invite you to stop by and say hello. We are scheduled
to be guests in the User Group Lounge, and will be doing two
presentations in the "Macworld Live On Stage Theater" during the week.
Join us for any or all the sessions.

USER GROUP SURVEY: BEST EVENT QUESTION AND LEADERSHIP POSITIONS ANSWERS
This week's MUG Center Survey question gives you a chance to brag a
little. As we start 2005, we want to know what you were most proud of
about your user group last year: What was the biggest, best, coolest
thing your user group did in 2004? Last week's question focused on the
leadership positions found in user groups. We were surprised to see the
Treasurer position come in as #2, way heead of the traditional Vice
President. Newsletter editors also didn't fare as well as expected, but
Webmasters came in high on the list, pointing to the importance of online
communication.
