The February meeting of the Adobe User Group of Atlanta turned out great. I think that everyone found some really cool ideas on how they could use some of the features of Acrobat 9.
Quote of the evening: "15% of most corporate IT departments budgets goes to paper supplies." Holy crap. Can you imagine how many jobs could be saved in our crazy economy if corporations reduced their paper use (not to mention trees)? Adobe just released a white paper on Enterprise Sustainability (and Acrobat) that is an interesting read (and could be useful to some of our clients). You can find this white paper here.
Adobe's presenters Phil Lee and Ann Fracas would have continued to show the really cool PDF example files for hours if I had let them.They wanted to show as many of the new features possible (as well as some of the more useful yet overlooked older features of Acrobat).
We are scheduling a "Flash Inside PDF" meeting for the Adobe Flash Platform User Group of Atlanta later this year. It's really powerful to see a Acrobat form use Javascript to talk to a Flex-based charting application all inside a Acrobat 9 PDF file. I think this use of Acrobat combined with Flex/Flash is really cool and has a totally untapped potential.
There are two meetings at Roundbox Global next week:

If you are interested in attending MAX but have not registered, then get to it! Today is the very last day for early registration.
You can see from the session tracks that there is a lot of things going on at Adobe behind the scenes that they are excited about showing at MAX.
If you are going to MAX, please let me know so I can look for you.
Greetings to you all! And thanks ever so much for your patience with our conversion from a Macromedia User Group to an Adobe User Group.
With the new site up, we will continue to add new items to it so keep an eye out.
And, as always, work on the site is only one way we are trying to keep you informed about our meetings.
And speaking of meetings... we have one coming up in two weeks (Thursday, June 22), so keep a look out for announcements going out soon (and details going up here).
