This week's MUG Event Calendar features both informative and social
meetings at Mac User Groups around the globe.
SRS iWow will show off one of our favorite iTunes plug-ins in California
while a Final Cut Pro User Group in Florida will see a demonstration of
Automatic Duck. Sascha Grant will bring his entertaining presentation
style to a group in Australia, and Mac User Group members everywhere
need to pay attention to two different expiration dates for special
offers and discounts, including a 50% special on Take Control eBooks. (more)

4 - Take Your Group to 2.0: Recognize the Need to Fund Your Group
<http://www.mugcenter.com/take-your-group-to-20-recognize-the-need-to-

Every so often an age-old debate starts up on the Apple User Group
Discussion List (AUGD) or whenever Mac User Group leaders get together:
should Mac User Groups be free? At one time the idea of having a group
that just got together and there was no need for funding was both
appealing and even perhaps realistic. In today's world, however, there
is no question: Resources cost money and MUGs need to find ways to fund
their operations. (more)
