UX Week 2010. Robot says it’s going to rock.
by Pam Daghlian
Only 88 more days until UX Week 2010! We are seriously excited. There is so much goodness packed into four days. For those returning, we’ve tweaked the format a bit from UX Weeks past. Attendee feedback called for more time for the hands-on stuff. Instead of devoting mornings to main stage talks and afternoons to workshops, we’ve programmed two full days of workshops sandwiched between two full days of main stage presentations. It’s like a UX panini and you’re the meat! Or tasty soy product.
Head on over to uxweek.com for the entire schedule, but while you’re here, have a look at three main stage sessions you can catch on day four of the conference…then, go register because you definitely want to be there. And you definitely want to register by May 31st when the early bird pricing ends. Use code BLOG for 10% off the early bird price.

He will wrap up day four of UX Week with his talk, The Reality of Fanasty in which he’ll examine why Fantasy user interfaces (FUI) looks the way it does, how it has evolved and the unique challenges and requirements that shape this unusual area of UI work.
