TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I thought the members of this list would be interested in a
conference called User Interface 97. It will be held November 3, 4 &
5 in Cambridge, MA. We've gotten eight of the most talented people in
the field of user interface design to give full-day seminars and
short presentations on the state of the art in software and web-site
design.
User Interface 97 is a 3-day conference for people who have hands-on
involvement in product development. You'll come away with practical
knowledge that you can begin using immediately in your work. Topics
include:
* Designing Useful Websites
* Interviewing Customers
* Visual Design for Information Products
* Effective Web Site Design
* Design for Emerging Web Technologies
* Model-Driven User Interface Design
* Designing with the Mind in Mind
* Adventures in Avatar Cyberspace
We've lined up some world-renowned experts as speakers including
Jakob Nielsen, Ellen Isaacs, Bruce Damer, Mary Mooney, Wayne Neale,
Marc Rettig, Eric Lunt, Tom Hewett, Larry Constantine, and Lucy
Lockwood.
If you register by October 13, you'll receive a 16% early
registration discount. From October 14 to October 31, regular rates
apply.
