I Took the 2007 Web Design Survey
“People who make websites have been at it for more than a dozen years, yet almost nothing is known, statistically, about our profession. Take the survey and change all that.”
Since Eric Meyer asked nicely, I just took the 2007 Web Design Survey. It only takes 10 minutes and you get a nice badge and can even win a ticket to An Event Apart, an iPod or other nice stuff.
Web Directions North
If you haven’t previously read about Web Directions North, let me introduce you to the top-notch web development conference of 2007. Web Directions North will take place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada on February 7th and 8th 2007. There’s also an optional day with workshops on February 6th, and post conference skiing on February 9th and 10th.
This is your chance to meet all the the major webdesign stars and gurus. Put together by designers and web developers, for designers and web developers, this conference is brought to you by Dave Shea from Mezzoblue and CSS Zen Garden who is also the co-author of the brilliant book The Zen of CSS Design. The 5 day conference features speakers such as Douglas Bowman, Dan Cederholm, Molly Holzschlag, Veerle Pieters, and many more. These are the people who have inspired me dozens of times and set the course for standards-based design. Over two days and nights, Web Directions North is packed tight with talks by these renowned speakers and experts, parties, and more.
If all of this isn’t enough for you, this picture from the Blackcomb Whistler skiing area can surely change your mind. This is not only one of the worlds greatest skiing and snowboarding destinations, it’s also the home of the 2010 Winter Olympics.
