Thursday Night: Photoshop with Jim DiVitale
Most of our local Photoshop artists, designers and photographers enjoy it when Jim DiVitale presents at the Adobe User Group of Atlanta (Tomorrow night, Thursday, January 22, 2009).
But why is that?
Could it be that he has a great deal of experience? He's been a commercial advertising photographer for 28 years and has a long list of certifications and degrees.
Could it be that he is a great Photoshop presenter? He's been touring around the country presenting Photoshop and other related Adobe products like Lightroom for years.
Could it be that he continues to give back to the community? On his blog and in a ton of publications.
No. I think that it is because he always presents ways to to reduce time and effort using Photoshop. And he almost always announces every keyboard shortcut while he presents. That is cool.

User Group Overload Ends with Tonight's XD Atlanta User Group Gathering
This week has been totally user group overload for me.
Tuesday we had Ryan Taylor present "Intro to Flash Player 10 and Pixel Bender" at the Adobe Flash Platform User Group of Atlanta. Ryan always wows us with his giant brain full of math. The part of his presentation that I thought was most interesting was his examples of Pixel Bender, the tool kit that lets you (yes, you. It looks like it's that simple) script filters and effects for Flash. Ryan has posted his presentation and demo files on his blog if you want to take a look.
Wednesday had me visiting the Atlanta ColdFusion User Group where I was pummeled by comments "Where the heck have you been?" and "You didn't RSVP!" Mea Culpa, my CF friends, I have been neglecting you badly. But tonight's meeting was a must-see event; John Mason gave us an overview of "BlazeDS for ColdFusion Developers" and he did so without showing a chat example (thanks for taking the high road, John). He replaced the unfortunately stereotypical chat messaging example with the much more pertinent ColdFusion error message widget example. John's presentation will be posted on his labs site.
Tonight should also be fun as Michael Hagel has arranged for the XD Atlanta User Group to have a "Summer Social Gathering" at STATS Atlanta, you know, the place where all the 360Flex parties were held (and the only place you could have seen me during 360Flex because I was too busy at work to attend sessions :-( ). It should be great. By the way, Michael, the site is looking great!
See you there!

CHI Atlanta Tonight: "How to Use Psychology to Influence Online Behavior"
I know it is last minute, but if you'd like to see Dr. Melissa Read speak on "How to Use Psychology to Influence Online Behavior" at tonight's CHI Atlanta event, you should drop by Roundbox Global tonight.
Here are the details, but I have to warn you that CHI Atlanta charges $10 at the door for non-members. And, no, just because it's at Roundbox doesn't mean I can slip you in the back door.
Come by and learn something. There are currently 50 people who have registered, so it won't be a small crowd. And it's a good crowd to know if you are an Internet professional! And you will actually receive a lot more than $10 worth of knowledge!
