With “Dr. Mac”kicking off the weekend this year and the newly released documentary, Love Notes to Newtonwrapping things up on Sunday, this year is already shaping up to be the best Macstock yet! But it certainly wouldn’t be Macstock without an amazing lineup of speakers, and this year is no exception!
Welcoming faces both familiar and new to Macstock attendees, Macstock 2018 is proud to announce a stellar group of folks who bring with them to the stage a rich knowledge of Apple’s hardware and software that will help you get the most from your Apple devices and apps!

With talks ranging from creating productive workflows with your Apple hardware, to discovering cool new apps you should be using, to productivity gaining tools like tagging and markup, you’re sure to walk away from Macstock 2018 having learned something new and exciting to try when you get home!
And we can’t forget the MyMac Quiz with Tim Robertson and Guy Serle!
A favorite of Macstock 2017 and returning in 2018, the banter between Tim, Guy, and the audience is key, making the MyMac Game Show a fun, interactive quiz in which the audience at Macstock has many opportunities to get sponsored prizes while laughing along with Tim and Guy and their fellow attendees!
And there’s only ONE place you can find two days of great talks, a special screening of Love Notes to Newton, plus that fantastic community spirit that makes being an Apple user so special, and that’s at Macstock 2018!
Great to be on the MyMac.com Podcast with Guy and Gaz to talk Macstock 2018 and give a sneak peek of everything heading your way at Macstock and Barry’s Midwest Mac Mingle 2018!
Getting excited about Macstock 2018? The GMen are and they dragged…INVITED Mike Potter and Barry Fulk who just happen to be the driving force behind Macstock on to the podcast to talk about what’s going on this year. They also consented (not forced!) to being on video, so you can actually WATCH too!
Thanks to Allison Sheridan of the Podfeet Podcasts for having me on Chit Chat Across the Pond to talk about all the cool new things heading your way at Macstock 2018!
I asked Mike Potter to join us on Chit Chat Across the Pond this week with the express purpose of trying to convince you to come to Macstock Conference and Expo on July 20th and 21st. Do not listen to this episode if you don’t want to be talked into it because I guarantee you’ll want to after hearing Mike and me talk about how interesting and fun and inclusive and geeky it is.
Macstock Expo is a fantastic opportunity to watch tech talks by great speakers, and to hang out with regular people who love the same technologies you do. If you think you’re too young, Ian’s son came last year and I think he’s around 12 years old. If you think you live too far away from Chicago where the conference is held, Martijn comes in all the way from the Netherlands!
I’m super stoked to let you guys in on the third new addition to the schedule this year, and it comes to us courtesy of Macstock speaker, Wally Cherwinski who introduced me to a Canadian filmmaker named Noah Leon and his super talented production team who are putting the final touches on a brand new documentary about “a little green computer and the people who love it”: Apple Computer’s Newton!
Chuck Joiner once again treats us to a behind the scenes look at Macstock, it’s presenters, and sponsors in his special MacVoices video series, The Road to Macstock! In this first installment of The Road to Macstock 2018 he chats with Macstock organizer Mike Potter!
Mike Potter is gearing up for this year’s Macstock 2018 conference, and gives us a preview of some of the changes and upgrades to this year’s event. A renowned keynote speaker, a new conference structure designed to give attendees more of what they want, at least one new evening activity are among the changes. In an exclusive announcement, Mike tells us about a special film screening that will also be part of the event, and how it came about through a Macstock presenter.
