Theo Mandel has started putting together the framework for our local World Usability Day Event. In his words,
I would like to announce the Phoenix event for World Usability Day 2007 on November 8, 2007. The Applied Psychology Program and Cognitive Engineering Research Institute at ASU’s Polytechnic Campus have graciously agreed to host the event on their campus in Mesa. The event will take place from 6-9 p.m. on the evening of Thursday, November 8, 2007. There will be no cost to participants to attend the event.
For more information, check out the full message at the PHX UEX Google group. If you’re interested in presenting (or sponsoring of course!) definitely throw your hat into the ring.
