1 - The MUG Event Calendar for January 22: Jim Heid, Final Cut Pro User
Groups, "Mac Magic," Delicious Monster and More Macworld Expo
It probably won't surprise you that the annoucements from Macworld
Conference & Expo continue to resonate at Mac User Group meetings.
This week's MUG Event Calendar confirms that conclusion. Expo events are
on the agenda from Illinois to Australia, Lousiana to Florida. But there
are plenty of other interesting meetings and presentations scheduled for
the week.
Two Final Cut Pro User Groups meet this week to discuss new software and
to hear members of the production team of the upcoming movie "Zodiac"
discuss their work. Author Jim Heid will present at a special, all-day,
user group-organized seminar in California, a user group in Arizona
takes their first shot at producing a regional Mac event with "Mac Magic
in the Desert", and a more technically-oriented user group in Washington
state will welcome Lucas Newman of Delcious Monster.

TicketDrum, the new software that simplifies and enhances the process of
drawing raffle prizes for your Mac User Group, make its debut at both
the Adobe User Group & Professional Association Breakfast and User Group
University at Macworld Expo last week.
If you were there, you had a chance to see how it displays the prizes,
makes drawing the numbers easy (and fun), and helps capture information
on the winners for later publication.
We want to remind user group members that developer Jack Beckman has a
special introductory discount available on TicketDrum...(more)
4 - Macworld Expo Photo Archives - Share The Experience
<http://www.mugcenter.com/macworld-expo-photo-archives-share-the-experience/>
Anyone who ventured to San Francisco for last week's Macworld Conference
& Expo undoubtedly had a terrific time and also took some photos. The
MUG Center has a tradition of compiling links to some of our favorite
photo galleries to help you share the experience of Expo, and to also
share it with your members.
To start, we want to point you to a series of spectacular Quicktime VR
images by professional photographer Landis Bennett. His Macworld 2007
page contains a series of interactive images that make you feel like you
were there. Want to show your members what it was like to stand in the
Apple Booth? The entrance to Moscone? Load these up at your next meeting
and you'll feel like you are back at Expo.
We also have links up to a variety of galleries, including some of our
own, and would like to add yours. (more)
