----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This year as part of its completely redesigned annual global
conference the Interaction Design Association (IxDA) is organizing a
Student Competition searching for "Excellence in Interaction Design".
Entries have already been streaming in from students representing
programs from around the world. For more information about goals and

This week we have some big announcements and a really big reminder:

Announcing Dell, Inc. as the exclusive sponsor
We are super excited to announce that Dell, Inc. global manufacture,
designer and distributor of computer systems for the home and business
is the exclusive sponsor of IxDA's Student Competition. Dell's
contributions will allow for IxDA to offer full scholarships to our
finalists to Savannah for the conference and to continue to compete
for the grand prize which Dell will also be contributing (see below).

Grand Prizes for IxDA Student Competition
Because of the generous support by Dell, Inc. IxDA is proud to
announce that not only will there be a grand prize for the winner of
the student competition, but also a prize for the second place
competitor as well. The grand prize winner will receive a Dell
Latitude XT2 Tablet Laptop (http://bit.ly/5GQFwk). There will also be
a 2nd place prize to be determined closer to the event, also provided
by Dell.

So don't miss your chance ...
The deadline for submitting your entry is just around the corner.

but also your last chance to submit to the competition. Individuals
