Also big thanks to those in the audience who gave us feedback and leads to pursue in taking this idea further. For example, I was pleased to see how narrative is being used to assist the in the design process for Yves Behar and fuseproject , the product design firm. Three quotes from the fuseproject website illustrate this: Approach: Our design... Blending IA and Design 2004-03-09T21:26:23+00:00 http://www.iasummit.org/2004/blog/archives/000085.html Hi all, We now have several of the videos up on the web. The links need some more testing, especially for different browsers. Most everything from the Content Management for Information Architecture is posted. See http://www.cmsreview.com/IA/audiovideo.html. And most of the Posters have little snippets at http://www.cmsreview.com/IA/Posters/. You will need the Real Player to view them, and the fearless usability testers among you might like to try an experiment. I want you to open a Powerpoint presentation (currently only Ann Rockley and Joseph Busch have them) and then click on the video. Can you manually synchronize the Powerpoint with the video...

This year, I brought the camera, so not so many incriminating ones of me.

I have to say I agree. I laughed out loud again tonight as I replayed my video of the inspired ending of Clifton's 5-Minute-Madness speech. Here's a small QuickTime clip which begins with Clifton saying he's from Vancouver, Canada. Enjoy......

My UI-focused view fit in very nicely with other presentations in that track. You would have thought it was all planned, but we all worked separately and there was no master plan to sync up as well as we did. But it was amazing to see my work referenced and so quickly assimilated into the other presentations. I think that is a sign that something is up with this faceted browsing thing. Here is the link to the web page about my presentation -...

It was heartwarming and much better than we expected! We hope to tell "y'all" about a way to distribute the elements of the toolset (templates, objects, macros and export wizard) soon. Of course we'll also upload our slides and the sample J-Flow that we demonstrated to the official website. For now, the presentation is available on Jacco's IA Summit page. Thanks to all attendees of our session, in particular Tal Herman,...

Gather at the 4th floor message board area around 7, or just show up there at around 7:30.
