Ideas for Meetings

crystal · 6th September 2006, 11:17

This thread is for ideas for up coming meetings, what you would like to see and do. If you would like to showcase something special at a meeting, this is the place to let us know.

And I would just like to add that if you're willing to do a presentation/demo/tutorial/something please let us know that. It's pretty clear that in order to do the things we want to do, we need participation from as many members as possible

If I can have a 10 minutes slot to demo some old and new folder navigation tips that most of you know already

Seriously, I'd like to take you all back to the basics to open the tip bids up from there.

We're not asking for the 12th Sept specifically but generally for any upcoming EMUG meeting and event.

Oh well if its quite general stuff ur asking about, then I'd like to see some hands-on action for terminal. I'm always a bit unsure when dealing with terminal. I'm just worried that somehow logged in as an admin, i'll screw things up. So terminal would be nice.
Also some image editing, photo manipulation, etc would be nice on the mac.
