About ByMUG
Next meeting: 1:00 PM Sunday, February 7th, 2010
For February's meeting we have a slew of demos; Tom will talk about how to back up DVDs using Handbrake, Dwight will show how to use Magna Studio to create magna and comics, then Reinhard will demonstrate how to use Geni.com, and finally, Derek will show his iPhone app Transitway to help users of Ottawa's transit system. We will of course, spend time discussing the Apple's latest creation, the iPad.
Why ByMUG?
We thought that a social Mac user group serving the Byward Market and downtown core of Ottawa was a great idea, and after passing the idea on to a few other fellow Mac users, our thoughts became a reality.
What is the Bytown Mac User Group of Ottawa (ByMUG)?
The Bytown Mac User Group (ByMUG) is a free membership social Mac-based user group located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It caters to any Mac users who happens to be in the Ottawa-area on the day of the meetings.
The meetings take place on the first Sunday of every month at a local eatery/pub called Patty Bolands. They have excellent food, a homey ambiance, and friendly employees that make your Patty Bolands experience a down home experience.
ByMUG is a computer user group dedicated to the Mac, that meets in a social environment, hopefully making everyone who comes feel at home. Maybe you'll want to eat lunch or supper while at one of the meetings. Or maybe you'll want to have a pint.
Demonstrations, question periods, guest speakers, announcements, and more. We'll cover what we can, when we can.
What's with the name?
Bytown is the original name for the city of Ottawa when it was founded in 1850, and is occasionally used to refer to the downtown and Market areas of Ottawa.
