Take Better Notes

Apple’s Notes app is already included on all of your devices and with iCloud, can be synced between them all. It’s one of the simplest note-taking apps, but there are many very powerful features that you may not be taking advantage of.

Does Notes not cut it? Want to go even further? There are many other apps that do even more or are better suited to special situations or configurations. Let’s discuss Apple Notes and some other alternatives to wrangle all the important information you want to keep track of.

Build a Website

Creating a website used to be time-intensive and required knowledge in programming languages. That is certainly not the case anymore! There are several ways to create your presence on the web that don’t require any technical knowledge. We will discuss some popular options that are available that can get you a simple single page or that allow you to scale up and build a complex, fully-featured website.

Take Control of Notifications

**NOTE: We will be starting the meeting at 7:00 PM, or earlier if the room becomes available before then.

Almost every app on your iPhone, iPad, Watch, and Mac can send you notifications. Sometimes these sounds, alerts, banners and badges can all be very helpful and are welcome. Other times they can be very distracting and annoying. There are numerous settings built-in that help give you fine-grain control over these notifications for if and when you’d like to receive them.
