NZ Transport Agency / Understanding Uncertainty

This location is shown only to members

We have NZ Transport Agency doing a talk on their new system. These guys are coming up from Wellington for our next meetup. We have a few other ideas booked in.

Mark Rickerby will be talking about "Understanding Uncertainty":

Mark will explore the landscape of social design and emerging patterns
for user authentication and online sign-ups, illustrating the failings
of common assumptions built in to popular frameworks and CMS
applications. We'll look at some surprising research into the ways in
which different user account models affect content quality, and how
evidence from large scale usability testing and psychology can help
guide us design more robust workflows that are easier to understand.

Last spot is Web Bites, each speakers talks for 10 minutes on 5 topics in rapid succession. This aims to cover a lot of ground very quickly and expose meetup peeps to a wide variety of ideas. We should have about 5-6 speakers in this spot.

Would love to see everyone at the next meetup if you can make it and looking forwards to a big night.

John.

    Don't know if this has been done recently, but I'd like to see a topic on colour management - from photoshop and css to how it looks on different screens. Any experts out there?
