Web Directions Is A Go For This Year

For those of you wondering, there will in fact be a Web Directions this year after all. I believe some folks were not too sure there for a time, but this has been cleared up once and for all on the Website.

As promised, Web Directions is going to happen in 2006, bringing you another all star line up to inform, educate and inspire. With in depth, practical sessions on design and development with (X)HTML and CSS, user experience design, interaction development with Javascript and Ajax, information architecture, accessibly, RSS, user generated content and much more, this really is the conference to see this year, right here in Sydney Australia.

Every one of our sessions will leave you with new ideas and techniques to help your team build more usable, more accessible, and simply better web solutions.

Kelly Goto - Designing for Lifestyle
Interaction design is no longer limited to the web. The concept of user experience is being redefined as multiple delivery methods of social and business interaction merge into our lifestyles. As design migrates from the web to mobile devices we carry and interact with on a daily basis, our approach must also shift into cycles of design and research centered around the way people actually live. In this enlightening session, design ethnographer and web veteran Kelly Goto discusses the evolution of Web, handheld, and product interfaces and their cultural impact. Learn how companies are utilizing ethnographic-based research to conduct rapid, immersive studies of people and their lifestyles to inform the usefulness and viability of interfaces both online and offline.
