[Sigia-l] Charlotte, NC IA/UX Cocktail Hour January 21

[Samantha Bailey]

Let's kick of the new year with our own version of the "State of the
Union"--what's the state of the Internet?

Paul Boutin of Wired.com says it needs saving--see his article "101 Ways to
Save the Internet"
(http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.01/internet.html?tw=wn_tophead_7)
Does it need saving? How does the state of the internet impact those of us
who have careers in UX related fields.

Meanwhile, it's resolution time--both Adaptive Path and Boxes & Arrows have
done articles on what they want to focus on in the upcoming year:

earlier for folks who have commutes, kids & whatnot.
