The Greater Nebraska Macintosh User Group (GNMUG) is hosted by the
AIM Institute in Omaha, Nebraska. Our group meets on the second Tuesday of each month at AIM Institute from 6:30 PM until 8:00 PM. The mission of this group is to
provide an open forum in which Mac users can learn about new Apple
products and discuss user questions and issues. Beginners and
advanced users are welcome!
People who use Apple technologies have joined together in user groups all around the world. Hundreds of groups offer members the chance to become friends with other Mac users, get questions answered, and have a lot of fun. Groups are for everyone from first-time computer users to experts — from every profession, background, and age. Want technology to do more for you? Then join the Greater Nebraska Macintosh User Group (GNMUG). It costs absolutely nothing!
Five great reasons to join — regardless of your skill level:
1. Make new friends: Meet people who share your interests and passions. Find a group of friends with whom you can talk about the Mac or just hang out. Go to a monthly meeting or to special events.
2. Get support and enhance your skills: You’ve got questions. Your local user group has answers. Enhance your computer skills so you can take yourself to a new professional level. Or, create projects for your family or hobbies. User groups can help you work harder or play harder.
3. Find local resources: The Internet provides many answers and resources. However, nothing beats the personal connection of meeting with local Mac users and exploring the resources that are available locally — from resellers to technical support to community activities.
4. Make business contacts: Maybe you’re not looking for a date, but you could be looking for professional contacts and networks. Meet people who run and manage area businesses, law practices, and medical centers, and discuss ways you can build relationships that are beneficial to all parties.
5. It’s just plain fun: There’s something about user groups that makes members come back time after time. They love it. They love the people they meet and the opportunities that user groups create. Being a user group member — it’s just plain fun.

Normally we'd just send out a tweet about this (that's usually what we do with free app deals, so if you're not one of the almost 40,000 people following us yet, you definitely should be), but this is a good one, and it's a holiday, so we wanted to make sure you knew. Sega is feeling particularly generous this weekend, so they're giving away free copies of their Columns Deluxe, a port of the old Genesis game, for the iPhone. The game is a pretty straightforward port...
Filed under: Software, iPhone, App Store, Road Tested  Like my colleague Mel Martin, I've had a serious GPS jones for quite a while. When I was in much better shape, I rode the local trails on a mountain bike with a Garmin eTrex Summit. It didn't have any maps, nor did I really need any for what I was doing. My next GPS receiver was a Garmin GPSmap 60cs that I used for geocaching. It had a nice color screen and some limited maps, but really didn't do a very good job of helping me find my way around town.
The third GPS unit was another Garmin,...
