Meeting
Agenda For January 2012
January 3 - New
Years Resolutions for Your Computer
Have
you made one or more resolutions for 2012? Did you think about
resolutions for your computer? Maybe your computer is asking
you to do something for it:
1 - Make the first back-up of the year?
2 - Load those programs sitting behind the desk?
3 - Organize your data files?
4 - Update the drivers?
5 - Clean out the registry?
6 - Get rid of programs not being used?
Maybe you are one of the millions of people who make New
Year's resolutions every year, and if so you know how hard
it can be to stick to them.
Judy Taylour is going to take us through a few things
we can do to make our computers run faster, be safer, and
just make our computing experience less stressful in 2012.
Every one of our members should attend to be sure you are
doing everything you can to keep your computer happy!

January
10 - Financial Solutions with Linux
(or Open Source)
This is the very best time to get your finances set up, keeping
records on a regular basis. That will make decisions, not
to mention taxes, far easier to manage as the year goes by.
Come see the solutions John Willauer has to offer
which he will contrast with the familiar programs that require
purchase.

January 17 - Annual
Meeting / Pot Luck
Here
is the meeting you have been waiting for: Our annual winter
pot luck. The usual routine for the pot luck is to bring a
dish which will serve 8-10. If you feel unable to do so, a
donation of $10 is appreciated so the committee can fill the
blank areas of the table and you get a delicious and complete
meal with your friends.
Following the pot luck we will have the very important annual
meeting. This is the only meeting when we bring all the business
which is discussed at our monthly board meetings before the
members in attendance. We want and need your input on important
decisions facing TUGNET.
Since many feel business is boring, well
try to have some interesting items so youll feel your
time was well spent.
January
24 - Tech
Talk with Jay Ross
There are new things on the horizon for 2012. Jay
may talk about these and other developments and he is always
willing to answer questions during his very interesting discussions.
January 31
- Organizing Media Files
Most
of us have more files on our computers that are not data than
are. Keeping these organized, not to mention knowing just
what they are, can be a challenge. See if Brians
demonstration gives you some new ideas.
Brian Orem will be here to show you how he keeps his
very sizable music collection organized and arranged in the
way he most enjoys for listening. Being able to automatically
look up album art and other data on what you already have
can be a pleasure. Im sure youll enjoy learning
how easy it is to manage your collection easily, whether they
be music, videos, podcasts, etc., and even sync them to your
mobile devices. You will have control using this Swiss Army
knife of music management software whether you have a few
favorites or thousands of copied and downloaded files.
If you havent mastered transferring your music from
those wonderful old vinyl's, etc., Brian can help you
with that as well.


Just click on one of the topics for the latest
articles from several of your favorite
Computer Magazines.
