Today I participated in the About With & For conference that took place at the East Bank Club in Chicago. It is a conference that we as ID students put on– Its a forum for academics and leaders of enterprises to discuss emerging design issues. The conference is largely focused on design research centered around the user (of course)– there is another conference that takes place much later in the year focused on business/design strategy. Link to about, with & for I will blog briefly tomorrow (or soon enough) about the interesting speakers who came to the conference. Now its time to get some badly needed rest. By the way, the latest issue of EngageID has been released and is available here: EngageID October 6, Issue # 18 Note my little piece on Tabblo (and the friggin 3 hrs spent publishing it. (Annoying, meddlesome IT staff and their bass-ackward security measures prevent us from installing any CMS on ID’s servers)
