For example, on the global events page, you can quickly find events in your geographic area are using these steps. 

1. CTRL-F
   
2. Type “NJ” in the box. (Unless you don’t live in NJ. Then type in NY, CA, ON, NETHERLANDS, AUSTRALIA or wherever you live.)

You can also search for presenter names, cities, and countries. If you don’t get any results, try changing the Find direction from “down” to “up.” If you still don’t get any results, try e-mailing Mike in the office.
