We are deep in the middle of planning for 2010 right now. One of the areas we want to continue to invest in (or perhaps raise our investment) is around user groups. Working with user groups can be a tricky topic for us – the best groups are those run completely by customers, and they tend to be the ones who don’t want a lot of interference from NI trying to “sell” them on products. On the flip side, we are often asked for new technical content that can be used for user group presentations.
Feel free to comment on this topic – I’ll create a poll to make it easier to respond:
Physical User Groups
If you are looking for more information on user groups. you can learn about physical user group meetings in your area at http://www.ni.com/usergroups
Virtual User Groups
We have a new capability on our Web site for creating virtual user groups. Most of these are organized around specific topics like “Building Large Apps with LabVIEW” or “RF Testing” and so on. You can see a list of these at http://decibel.ni.com/content/groups
Feel free to comment with any specific ideas for future user group meeting topics you would like to see…
