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!
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.
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 installment of The Road to Macstock 2017 Chuck meets up with first-time Macstock presenter Jeff Gamet about his talk on home automation.
The Road to Macstock takes a turn through AltConf in San Jose, where Jeff Gamet of The Mac Observeroffers his thoughts on what makes both AltConf and WWDC such great events…characteristics they both have in common with Macstock. Jeff’s session will focus on smart home tech, and he shares how he will approach the topic, as well as some of the specific recommendations he will be making. He talks about what devices he likes, what he is staying away from, and why he wanted to be a Macstock presenter this year.
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 installment of The Road to Macstock 2017 Chuck talks with presenter Matt Hillyer about his Macstock session on IFTTT.
The Road to Macstock continues in a conversation with Matt Hillyer about his session on the power of If This Then That (IFTTT). We start with how IFTTT works and what you can do with it, and end with what you need and how Matt’s presentation will help you get started. In the middle we discuss the many Internet of Things (IoT) devices that IFTTT can control, which ones Matt has experience with, and which ones he prefers.
