Report about AUG Media Resources
by Tom Piper, Coordinator
This Apple World User Group University online gathering of Apple user group
leaders was held at 5:00pm CDST, on March 21, 2022, via Zoom. We had 42
participants for the topic of AUG Media Resources. The 75-minute video can be
viewed at: https://youtu.be/aw1TYrd8pWM <https://youtu.be/aw1TYrd8pWM>
(unlisted on YouTube).
This session opened with my welcome (especially to new registrants), plus a
quick review of the meeting protocols, and an invitation to submit user group
Product Review web links. Doug Smith, Chair of the Apple User Group Advisory
Board (AUGAB) provided backup support during the call.
Isabel Collins of the Apple Users’ Society of Melbourne made a slideshow
presentation about their paper and digital newsletter describing the process
and editor’s recognition. Steve Welsh of the Oregon Macintosh Users Group
provided a slideshow about the history of media and evolution of their
newsletter . Joan Newman of the SouthWest Florida Apple Computer Knowledge
Society then provided a slideshow about the development and timing of their
newsletter. This was followed by questions and experiences by a number of other
participants, several of whom also sharing information about their newsletters,
portals, message boards, blogs, ePubs, podcasts and other media resources.
Additional questions were asked, experiences shared and suggestions made by
other user group leaders. The following links were offered for further
