Travel Apps

A well-rounded travel journey is about balancing the excitement of exploration with the comfort of preparedness, creating unforgettable moments that enrich your life. Explore websites, apps, and AI to enhance your local and far away travel plans. With that in mind, Chris Knotts presented a discussion of several applications that can assist your future travel.  It was a great presentation -- thank you Chris -- that ~65 people were able to attend.  Unfortunately, it was not recorded so only the slides are available for your viewing.

Google Script

Tom Dodrill gave an overview of Google Script, a cloud-based scripting tool which allows you to create, automate, integrate and modify, tasks within the Google workspace such as Google Sheets, Docs, Forms, Gmail, Calendar and more.  You can design custom workflows to automate tasks such as creating and emailing documents and entering events on Google Calendar based on a Google Form, create custom menus for functions in Sheets, Docs and others.  No programming knowledge needed - and it's Free!

Unfortunately we had some technical difficulties and the video recording stopped at about 30 minutes.  However, Tom also mentioned that he is planning on having several classes on Google Script in the future.

Staying Safe While Online

Noah Rosenstein discussed Staying Safe While Online.  Regardless if you are a PC, Mac, Android, or iPhone user, his presentation was of equal interest.  His presentation was a shortened and updated version of his recent 2-hour class on the same topic and will focus on avoiding scams you receive as a phone call, an email, or a text -- what to look for.  At the end of the day, it's all up to you.  There is no silver bullet application that alone can prevent being scammed.
