... and finally finds a few minutes to post! Tuesday's Brisbane meeting was great!
Tania Lang of Peak Usability and the Brisbane CHI SIG dropped by to introduce herself and fill us in the SIG and World Usability Day on November 3 - sounds good. Brisbane is hosting a 1/2 day seminar entitled "Usability: Making it Easy". Is anything happening local to you? Ben Buchanan of Griffith University (how cool is it to have the job title "Web Standards Developer"?) had the main gig, with his talk on "Sticks, carrots & staying sane: An approach to standards advocacy in large organisations" and very interesting it was. The presentation is online at http://weblog.200ok.com.au/2005/06/sticks-carrots-staying-sane.html and the video appears to have been successful, so hopefully that will be available soon. August will see us avidly listening to John Bates talking to us about Internationalisation (geez, no wonder it is routinely abbreviated to 'i18n'!). warmly, Lea -- Core Group Member ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
