The IT Division is sponsoring a Google Users Group
Now that the transition to Google has been completed, we see a need to enhance communication and training efforts. To that end, we are creating a Google Users Group - patterned after the very successful Mac Users Group (MUG).
The LBL Google Users Group will initially consist of lab employees who were members of Google Guides during the migration to Google and who indicate an interest in continuing on. In addition it will include those Google Survey respondents who indicated an interest in participating in regular communications about Google tools.
Membership is open to anyone at the lab who has an interest. Members can opt out of the group at any time.
The LBL Google Users Group will be invited to participate in email interaction through the group, attend Google hands-on training or attend seminars.
The first event will be on Friday, September 2, 2011, at noon in the Building 50 auditorium. We will go over recent improvements in the applications we use, how we communicate issues with Google, and listen to concerns that need to be given more priority by IT as well as Google's enterprise support team

As of noon, Thursday August 18, the group has 149 members. The IT Division Google Team will be posting GoogleGrams - typically weekly - to keep everyone informed on new features (or old features which have some known issues).
