April RUX meeting details!   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #84 of 107 |
Join us for our first RUX book club!

For April's discussion, we'll talk about the book Subject to Change: Creating
Great Products & Services for an Uncertain World from Adaptive Path.

Format: (from UXBookClub.org)

A UX (User Experience) Book Club is a get-together in which people interested in
the area of user experience come to discuss a book relevant to the discipline.

A UX Book Club would operate as follows:

* Everyone who attends should try and read the nominated book (you won't be
barred from entry, but it helps everyone get more out of the night);
* Everyone needs to jot down and bring along: 2 things in the book that really
struck a chord; and 1 thing they either hated, disagreed with; or don't
understand.
* The book would be within the practice of user experience, which might include
books like Indi Young's Mental Models; Dan Saffer's Design Gestural Interfaces;
Todd Zaki Warfel's forthcoming Prototyping; and classics such as The Design of
Everyday Things; Don't Make Me Think; The Inmates Are Running the Asylum; etc.
* The book should not be arduous to read!
* We'll vote on next month's book at the current meeting.

In keeping with the book-club theme we will meet somewhere like a wine bar or a
bookstore. The important thing is that the noise level has to be low, and be
able to accommodate a group of 15-30 people.

We'll keep the book club updated via the UX Book Club site:
