[Sigia-l] Reminder - today is early registration deadline for IA Summit

[Richard Hill]

Today is the deadline for early registration for the 2007 IA Summit.

22-26 March, 2007
Flamingo Las Vegas
Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

The Information Architecture Summit is a premier gathering place for
information architects and for discussion about information architecture.
Everyone who touches on IA is welcome to share and learn. Last year's IA
Summit attracted over 500 attendees, including beginners, experienced IAs,
and people in a range of related fields.

This year's theme is 'Enriching IA', examining three trends:
    * Rich information: More and more information becomes available to users
and systems alike and these days most of the information comes with
metadata, built-in links to other information, and API's or micro-formats
that allow for mashups. How rich is your information?
    * Rich interaction: The web is moving towards a more interactive
environment, and desktop apps are adapting web metaphors. How does this
affect the way you design applications?
    * Rich relationships: We are all already linked through information and
social computing is increasing the possibilities to exchange information. Is
your information a social lubricant or is it an obstacle for building
relationships?

Our keynote speaker is architect Joshua Prince-Ramus-a Principal at Ramus
Ella Architects (REX). REX's current projects include Museum Plaza in
Louisville, KY; the Dee & Charles Wyly Theatre in Dallas, TX; the Annenberg
Center at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, CA; and the
Forward Residence in New York, NY.
