Macstock 2019 Link Roundup

Macstock was especially awesome this year. Each time I return home I try to dedicate time to reflect on my time on the event. And I always come away with a better understanding of the Mac community, deepened friendships, new friendships, and way more tools to play with than I should ever download.

But in the midst of my time reflecting I noticed that there are a lot of links shared about Macstock. I was doing my best to read as many as I could and discovered it was kind of difficult to find them all. So I've done the research and compiled as many as I could find. Those are below. But if I've missed any, just let me know in the comments below and I'll get them added.

Pre-Conference

Before we jump into the links, I want to point out once set of videos that has become an annual tradition leading up to the conference. Chuck Joiner of MacVoices did his annual Road to Macstock series, which is a bank of videos with the speakers and event organizers. It's a great way to learn about everyone involved before the event kicks off. It's a great way to learn more about who you'll meet at Macstock. So if you're on the fence about whether or not to go, you need to check these out prior to commitment.

The Speaker Roundup

Ok, let's jump in. First off, here are the links I've found from the speakers themselves. Over the last two years I've found myself hanging out with and catching up with more and more of the speakers. So I personally enjoy reading their viewpoint of how the conference went.

Allison was the first speaker of the event and began things by telling us the story of how she came to realize she was creative. It's quite a story and one that had many different outcomes that seemed crazy and implausible.

David Ginsburg from In Touch with iOS and Off the Charts Horse Racing talks with Guy at Macstock 2019.http://intouchwithios.comhttps://offthechartshorseracin...

Dave gave a talk on using Apple Notes to be creative. I'm far from an Apple Notes user but there were quite a few tips here that I could see being useful.

Kirschen doesn't have a dedicated article but I found her tweets revolving around the event fun. She did a talk on sketch noting that inspired others to give it a go throughout the remainder of the event.

Brett gave a talk on discovering your writing workflow. It was during his talk that I realized Brett and I have very similar struggles with focus and work in many of the same ways and with the same tools. So I found myself looking into every tool he mentioned and was pleased to see that a large portion of those were already in my tool belt. The two big ones were Marked and Multimarkdown Composer. I was aware of them, but they're now in active use.

Josh and I rode down to Macstock together so I had the great honor of hearing this fast-paced, high-energy talk a few times. It was well worth it. Definitely a great talk. He even got me to consider Paprika. But let's be honest, the kitchen is my wife's. I'll stick to the grill.
