The July CMUG meeting will
take place on Wednesday, July 21st at 7:30 pm, at the
East Columbia Library.
Our presentation will be on
Shopping Via The Internet,
with a focus on Amazon.com, and maybe a little
discussion of Amazon's recent purchase of Woot.com.
CMUG member Paul Van Bloem will do part of the
presentation, but we encourage members to discuss their own online shopping experiences.
Hope to see you on Wednesday at 7:30 pm at the
East Columbia Library.

to June 30, 2011 term are:

Meeting Location We are currently holding our meetings at the
East Columbia Library, which is at 6600 Cradlerock Way, Columbia, MD 21045.
It's about 3 miles from the Bain Center, but only about a mile from Route 29. Here's a
Google Map you can use to find your way.
Go in the main entrance of the building, and the meeting room
is on your right before you get to the library space proper.
Thanks to George Coffin for his
show-and-tell on Facebook and
LinkedIn at the April and May meetings.
