MAC2 members and friends — Hello to everyone!

at Creative Source (location details below)
6:30 PM — Socializing, news and announcements
7:00 PM — Presentations begin
This month's topic:
REMARKABLY SMALL APPS WITH
REMARKABLY BIG FEATURES
A fresh batch of free, unique, wonderfully useful Mac applications
to be presented by Rob Ellis
Much like an acorn, a parachute, a habanero pepper, a candy heart bearing the perfect
romantic phrase, and Mighty Mouse, all of which clearly illustrate the concept that big things
come in small packages, there are many apps for your Mac that require little storage space and
open quickly, yet accomplish impressive tasks. What sorts of tasks? How about tracking parcels
without needing to visit a single website, easing the reading of long lines without straining your
eyes, finding words, synonyms and information almost instantly, easily keeping your Mac or
your Mac's display awake for specific amounts of time, and much more? Into every life, a little
app must fall, and we have several. On Tuesday, Rob will showcase a brand-new batch of
diminutive apps which sport prodigious features, none of which will cost you a single red cent.
Please join us for some big information, and we promise said information will not amount to
mere small talk.
Also,
BACK TO BASICS
In this segment, we focus on more fundamental skills, to make life a little easier for those who
are trying to learn how to use their Macs and iOS devices. This month:
iPHONE TIPS, TRICKS AND INFO
to be presented by Annette Davis
If you would love to know several wireless keyboard tricks, how to make your iPhone's battery
last even longer, how to share a voice mail, and much more, come see Annette's presentation. On
Tuesday, she will share a bunch of helpful, little-known secrets to make your iPhone work even
better.

In 1900, Theodore Roosevelt first used the phrase, "Speak softly and carry a big app." While
we confess that we might be slightly butchering this quote, we would like to point out that a
small app can be mighty effective as well. If fact, we will be happy to prove it. Please join us
on Tuesday, and please feel free to bring a friend. See you there!
