AWUGU Meeting Report about Gadget Gift Guide
by Tom Piper, Coordinator
This Apple World User Group University (AWUGU) online gathering of Apple user
group leaders was held at 5:00pm CDST, on November 20, 2023, via Zoom. We had
22 participants for Gadget Gift Guide. The 73-minute video can be viewed at
https://youtu.be/de4SCdVgGbE (unlisted on YouTube).
This session opened with my welcome, plus a quick review of the meeting
protocols. This was followed by a series of suggestions about items to be
placed on the Gift Guide. Many questions and comments were then added.
Related to this topic of Gadget Gift Guide, a bonanza of product suggestions
were provided by user group leaders in the Chat Room with the following links:
