An Intro to Genealogy

The who, what, why, when, and where of families

What’s in a family tree? Should it be? Should it not be? How did it get there? And why?

The joys and sorrows of genealogy and family history. It can drive you nuts, but man, you can discover the most interesting stuff! Come on down and find out how it works.

Regular Features

Apps & Traps – Our essential monthly feature on interesting new products and services for iOS and OS X, brought to you by Dave Whitby.

appleSTEMs – Warren James presents interesting Apple science, technology, engineering, and math software. (On hiatus, while Warren’s free time is on hiatus…)

appleCore – Everyone says that iOS and macOS are intuitive and easy to use. If you believe that, I’ve got a bridge to sell you. Although iOS and macOS are easy to use after you’ve learned how to use them, actually learning to use them can be a bit confusing. Often, basic things are not explained because it is assumed that you already know them. We all know that that’s not always the case. So now the SGVAUG presents an on-going series of short talks about the core elements of iOS and macOS so that soon, you’ll be able to tell everyone, “Of course iOS and macOS are intuitively obvious”.

At Conrad’s, visa requirements in various countries, traveling in various states and places, teaching experiences, Tommy Chong, self-defense, rugby, and music stuff came up.

That’s my story; I’m sticking to it!

 
We have confirmed the meeting schedule with the library until the middle of next year. Please note that, as has been the case recently, the January and February meetings are not on the the third Monday, but on the second Monday.
