The Charlotte UX group met yesterday at Modis, Uptown. Good turnout, pizza, and conversation. I dropped some Pecha Kucha knowledge, and hopefully generated some interest for PK Night vol 4 in August. Greg Corrin talked about Google Wave and let us play with the Android phone from the Google I/O developer conference.
Twitterers in attendance: I met @wwwmarty IRL for the 1st time, saw my coworker @shelkster, saw @inkblurt, @gcorrin, and watched @jorah knitting some funky wool socks.
In other Charlotte UX news, we’ve officially abandoned Evite for event administration and, for now, that is handled at charlotte-ux.org. We’re also trying out a Ning site, so if you want to check that out, post something in the comments (it’s invite-only for now).
It’s actually in Rock Hill this time around, but… close enough.
I’m going to be presenting “The Incredible Shrinking Media”, which I’ll post on cultivatecreativity.com tonight for your enjoyment. (It’ll also show up in my lil’ Slideshare widget over there –>
Collected lots of pics and follow-up posts from this past weekend’s BarCamp in Charlotte. I’ll post a cleaned up version on cultivate creativity this weekend. If you know of more, post up in the comments. Also, let me know if you’d like to be credited differently than what I’ve done here…
7:30 pm at Alive in NoDa (2909 N Davidson St. Charlotte 28205 – in the Highland Mills complex)
