Let's kick this group off with a couple of after-work presentations

Content strategy meetups are returning to Auckland! We're going to alternate between a more formal format one month and a pub-based meetup the next. This month we're going the more formal way.

Since it's our first meetup we'll start with a few introductions. Then the fun begins:

Emma Pittar-Knight is a UX Designer at the Digital Arts Network, and one of this meetup's three organisers. She presented at UX New Zealand in October and will treat us to an appetizer-sized encore performance of that talk, Raising Content Right (http://uxnewzealand.co.nz/uxnz-2013/raising-content-right/).

Max Johns also spoke at UX New Zealand, which got him thinking about how content strategists and user experience professionals have a lot in common: Our fields attract people from all sorts of backgrounds, and require curious minds and a huge amount of empathy for our audience. He'll talk a bit about that.

Once the talks are over we might even head to Fort Street for a drink.
