Bob’s Notes

Mac User Groups

  • Apple Podcasters and pundits should become members of their local MUGs and volunteer to give presentations a couple times per year.
  • This would provide them with more listeners and readers, strengthen the Apple Community, and perhaps add to their advertising base.

Apple CarPlay

  • Easy and safe way to be more productive
  • Listen to podcasts instead of music (learn stuff)
  • Send and receive phone calls and texts
  • Bluetooth Apple CarPlay is not needed, wired is better

Check the Apple Security Updates page to see if your Apple gear is up to date.
