[IxDA Discuss] Reading Ahead - Design Competition @ Core77
We're psyched to be working with Core77 on a design competition that is about taking our Reading Ahead project (user research findings about the reading experience and associated opportunities - http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead ) into developing concepts for possible future products, services, and more. I think it's really important for our fields to have artifacts, examples, experiences, etc. that can illustrate the connection between research and design. Read more about the competition at http://www.core77.com/blog/featured_items/new_1_hour_design_challenge_launches_today_the_future_of_digital_reading_14577.asp I'd really love to see entries from folks here!

Re: [IxDA Discuss] SXSW Panel Picker- please vote for my panels!!!
I have two panels for voting as well. I'm really excited about attending this year (I haven't been before, although a number of my fellow panelists have). Culture Kicks Our Ass: How To Kick Back http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/ideas/view/3629 Please vote for this panel from Steve Portigal and D. P. Haine. We%u2019ll explore the different cultural challenges that breakthrough products must overcome: emergent usage behaviors that are impossible to predict, a global customer base and cultural barriers inside the corporation that suffocate innovation. We%u2019ll also share best practices for addressing each challenge. FAIL: When User Research Goes Horribly, Horribly Wrong http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/ideas/view/3765 Please vote for this panel from Steve Portigal, Portigal Consulting Nate Bolt, Bolt|Peters Dan Saffer, Kicker Studio Aviva Rosenstein, Ask.com Mark Trammell, Digg Best practices for user research are not hard to come by, but experience is the ideal way to develop mastery. And with experience inevitably comes failure. Embarrassing, awkward, hilarious failure that gives the gift of self-improvement. We%u2019ll share our own unvarnished examples and what they taught us. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interaction09: Dont' forget, international phone plan!
Of course, you could just be insanely cheap like me and refuse to use any roaming services at all while in Vancouver. Skype from the hotel room and email/twitter from iPhone when there's WiFi (and there will be confernece WiFi, right???) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Can good design save the world?
http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/130/mission-critical.html is a good article about Hilary Cottam and had gave a more tangible spin to a discussion I'm pretty tired of (because there seems to be little actual result but a lot of weepy chest thumping). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
