InfoManager

Lynn Wegley is a popular User Group Network. He's been a supporter and volunteer on many User Group projects in the past twenty years. He's served as volunteer from Honolulu to Boston and many points in between. Currently working with the Apple Corp of Dallas, the Dallas Mac Pack, Cowtown MUG of Ft. Worth and TUMS (the Tulsa Users of Macintosh Society) doing newsletter articles and the monthly CD-ROM Update.
      It's interesting to note that the "InfoManager" used to be called the "Rumor Manager" until Diane Kohn (Apple's User Group Manager) blocked us from the user group discussion list (AUGD) because of the use of the word "Rumor" ... it too nearly a year after changing the name to get back into Apple's good graces. In the mean time, the InfoManager's email list has doubled in readership!
