Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss 2020 Guest Speaker Series featuring UX expert Michael Longe held on Mar 31, 2020. Please comment on which topic you'd like to hear MIchael speak.
Hey, everybody! In case you didn't automatically get the invite for the newest IxDF Seattle event, now back under Shane Massey's management, here it is:
Hey, everybody. Thank you for your patience. Shane continues to try to regain ownership of this meetup thread; but without co-ownership I can't revise the Series topic either.
Here's the plan:
1. We'll meet virtually at 6:00 - 8:00 pm (PDT) on Tuesday, 31 Mar, as originally scheduled. Here's the Hangouts Meet info:
(A Google account is required if you want to text/Chat, etc. during the meeting; downloading the Meet app is required if you want to view/send video etc. on your mobile phone; otherwise you should be able to view on a laptop and talk over the phone without .)
2. This will be an Open House, icebreaker, group introduction, and videoconferencing technology test. (So don't panic if you are a few minutes late, e.g. while wrestling with the setup.)
Be prepared to give an answer to That Interview Question -- because it's good practice, whether you're in a career transition, like me, or are headed to your next cocktail party (in 3 months?).
3. Post here if anything goes wrong; we'll try to get you hooked in!
(I exchanged messages with Shane this evening; he's trying to get back on this IxDF discussion thread.)
As originally proposed, my first talk would be on the one topic or the other. But the topics are both at the "workshop" phase (to borrow a theatrical term), benefiting from discussion by a group of smart UX professionals before creating a presentation from it. So I'd like to wait on that discussion until we can be together in person, safely (6 feet +/- 3).
But, like some other IxDF meetups right now, there's no reason not to try using conference technology to start meeting regularly. And I just read that Google is opening up all features of Hangouts Meet to everyone, without charge, at least while we are all Safer at Home.
Hi there - just wondering, are you still planning to hold this meetup? I know a lot of meetups have been cancelled because of Covid-19. Another idea would be to move it online?
