Cloud Storage Solutions - Homebrew Cask - Highlights Of CES

Cloud logo

Come join us at our February meeting where we will feature the following presentations:

Bruce Mittelman will give an overview of several of the more popular cloud storage solutions. Cloud storage has become an integral part of our modern, mobile lives. Having your data stored offsite in the cloud makes it accessible from anywhere and serves as means of backup in case of disaster on your home device. Bruce will show you the more popular cloud based providers and what they have to offer.

Jerry Glacken will give a demonstration of Homebrew Cask, an extension of Homebrew that allows you to easily install GUI Applications via Homebrew. And since Homebrew is a command line utility, scripting your installations is a breeze.

Louis Perez will give another installment in his "Magical Mystery Tour of the Web" series. This month's tour will showcase the "Highlights of the Consumer Electronics Show from Las Vegas".

As always it'll be a meeting you won't want to miss. We look forward to seeing everyone there!
