POSTPONED: The next meeting of the DCFCPUG - originally scheduled for July 29, 2008 in Georgetown, DC - has been postponed. We will announce the rescheduled meeting in the near future.
Our apologies to anyone inconvenienced by this postponement, and our thanks to CDIA for offering to host.
Should DCFCPUG.org add a forums page?
Our user group quickly amassed an impressive number of members, and the first meeting had a surprisingly good turnout (thanks to lots of help from industry stalwarts). But, are users looking for forums here? Or are the Apple, Creative Cow, 2-Pop and other global forums enough to scratch everyone’s itch?
Personally, I see potential for a forum containing discussions about the local scene, and maybe filling in some holes left open by the bigger forums (which can be impersonal on occasion). That said, nothing is more pathetic than a page full of forums that sit fallow - populated only with a few lonely posts by the moderators, who try desperately to invite debate.
So, forums or no forums? Please vote by adding your Comments below.
Two of our newest DCFCPUG members are learning the very latest developments concerning the foundations on which all Apple and third party applications depend every day. Look for the 3G iPhone, Snow Leopard OS among other cool and innovative features to give us more tools to maximize our digital lifestyles.
Our members are in the company of the former forty-fifth Vice President of the United States, Al Gore, who also attended the week long event in San Francisco as a member of the audience. As a Director on the Board of Apple, Inc and a prominent environmental activist, Mr. Gore no doubt kept the Secret Service busy at the event - which had 5,200 people in the crowd.
You can see the keynote in QT or HD at WWDC Keynote Address.
I’ve included an iPod low-res QT of the highlights if you don’t want to watch the full Apple video.
*Higher resolution highlight versions are available…
