Our highest attendance is when we are "teaching" by example an
application.
For example, Wednesday one of our member did a 1.5 hr session on the
process of creating a DVD movie of photographs. The examples were
DVDs he created to document separate visits by his grandkids to our area
We had 70 members in attendance and the questioning was lively
We do NOT / try hard NOT go into the why things work Rather on how
to use them

Our User Group is developing an interesting problem: we're slowly
growing the number of members, but we're getting fewer of them at
our meetings. Are User Groups perceived as being too geeky to go to
in today's "cool" world? In our User Group I have to admit that it
really is the more geeky members who are the most regular
attendees. How do we attract the others?
We've run meetings on a variety of subjects but so far haven't hit
on a sure fire attraction. I'd like to get away from the geeky
image if possible as I suspect this is part of the problem, ie that
any kind of User Group for computers must be geeky.
Any ideas?
TIA,
Mac
