User Groups Benefit from Safari
When O’Reilly developers needed someone to user-test the new Safari Affiliate Program, Stephen Henry from the North Coast Mac Users Group was the ideal choice. Situated 40 miles north of San Francisco, NCMUG has been active since the Mac first arrived in 1984. Henry created an excellent working example of how user groups can implement the Affiliate Program to benefit their members. Ed Stephenson brings you the details.


Featured Review

O'Reilly Network Safari Bookshelf
Reviewed by Tim Thomas, Alaskan Apple Users Group

Tips for writing reviews.

Now this is what I've been waiting for; a good, in-depth, online library that I can search for specific data, sample books that I might want to read, even read complete books online.

That was the promise way back there, wasn't it? That pretty soon we'd all have access to vast collections of information, that we would be able to access whenever to search and peruse. Along with shopping online, telecommuting, and, uh, other Buck Rogers stuff, it was predicted almost at the beginning of this 'computer age' that we are slogging into at something less than full speed ahead. Well, we still aren't there, but we are inching a bit closer, with Safari (no connection with the Apple browser of the same name) Tech Books Online.

From Tim O'Reilly

"User groups represent the spirit of the frontier, a community getting together to do things that no individual ought to have to do alone. The pioneers of the American west got together for barn raisings, cattle roundups, and the occasional party. The pioneers of new technology get together for installfests, new user training and support, and just plain fun. Being part of a user group is the best way to get more out of your computer, and lets you make friends while you're at it."
Tim O'Reilly
