The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, May 8. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: Gordon Meyer's Smart Home Hacks Learn how to put your computer to work around the house. Gordon's presentation will get you started with the basics of do-it-yourself home automation, then cover the most practical, fun, and interesting techniques culled from around the globe. Drawn from the best of "Smart Home Hacks", you're sure to find at least one that suits your lifestyle. If you're new to home automation, you'll get on the fast track to the most useful methods. If you're an old hand, you'll leave with tips and inspiration for upgrading your home. Gordon Meyer is a Chicago-based writer and speaker who has authored dozens of software manuals, numerous articles for computer users and technical writers, and O'Reilly's "Smart Home Hacks", a leading book on do-it-yourself home automation techniques. Gordon, an amateur magician and a frequent speaker at technical conferences, touts a practical, lighthearted, and humanized approach to integrating technology with daily life. ********************************************************************** Meeting Location: For this month only, the meeting will be held at the Millennium Library, in the Carol Shields Auditorium (on the second floor).
