[Sigia-l] NH UPA June Meeting: Speed Networking & Topic Discussions - Wednesday June 25th, 6:00 PM

[Kyle Soucy]

NH UPA is trying a new and fun meeting format for June. We're calling  
the meeting format NH UPA Speed Networking - similar to speed dating,  
but obviously with a different goal in mind!

All those attending the meeting will have the chance to speak with  
others in a one-on-one or small group format for a short period of  
time before rotating to meet with others. This will be more than just  
small talk, though. After a quick introduction, the discussion will  
focus on specific topics of interest relating to usability and design.  
We hope the format will help attendees learn about fellow NH UPA  
members, hear what others are doing, learn different viewpoints on  
issues, and be inspired by other's ideas. There is no homework or  
requirements for the meeting and the discussions will be open to  
experienced professionals and beginners alike.

Specific Topics for Discussion may include:
Usability in Agile Software Development
Making the Business Case for User Experience Design
Preferred Prototyping Methods
Eye Tracking - Valuable or Hype?
Use of Personas
Favorite IA Methods - Card Sorting, Freelisting, Content Analysis, etc
Inspiring Interfaces
Web Site Navigation Paradigms
Recommended Books and Learning Opportunities
AJAX and Web 2.0 Technology
Others...

When:
Wednesday, June 25th
Refreshments & Networking: 6-7:00 PM
Meeting: 7:00 PM – 8ish

Where:
