The August NBLUG meeting will be Tuesday August 13. We’re going to do something a little different: Scott Larson has generously booked the CoLab Presentation Lab for us. He’s going to demo Obsidian:

Obsidian is a modular PKM tool that you can adapt to the specific way you think. I’m using Obsidian to organize projects, track my progress with jobs, write articles and stories.

Before I started using Obsidian, I used this note taking app for the iOS device called “Editorial”. I really like it because you could code templates that fit your specific needs. With templates, you can create notes with pre-filled information reducing redundant keystrokes during the creation of a new note and during the note taking process.

Eventually the developer stopped supporting it and I started to have problems with it as the OS went through its iterations. I reached out to this news site I frequent “Hacker News” and one commenter suggested Obsidian for a replacement.

It’s been over a year now and I’m using for everything I do in my day to day work and creative life. I thought maybe this might be of interest to some people and I also realized that not many people know about it.

And Tom Most will give a quick demo of the screenshot tool Flameshot.

The demos will run 7-8pm at CoLab:

CoLab
427 Mendocino Ave., Suite 100
Santa Rosa, CA 95401

The door will be locked, so Scott will need to let people in. Text him at 707-416-5811 when you arrive.

After the demo (around 8pm), we’ll head around the corner to Flagship Taproom Santa Rosa:

Flagship Taproom Santa Rosa
446 B St.
Santa Rosa, CA

This is a sister location of the Flagship in Cotati. Don’t go to Cotati!

There’s a change of venue for the March meeting (because Redwood Cafe has live music on the 12th). The meeting will be at Flagship Taproom, just up the street:

Flagship Taproom
8099 La Plaza St, Cotati

Still at 7pm on March 12.

We’ll probably sit in Flaghip’s outdoor space. It’s covered, but it will likely be a little chilly. Dress accordingly!
