Last Night was the inaugural meeting for the newly formed Vancouver User Experience Group in the newmic . I was very impressed with the turnout of about 30-40 people.

The panel of speakers was also very good. The topic of discussion was Intersecting Experiences: Defining and Defying Common Language. The panel pointed out that User Experience is still in it’s infancy. The User Experience also has to be viewed in a larger context outside of the screen environment. The experience doesn’t start there and it doesn’t stop there either. It’s only part of it. Couldn’t agree more. The panel offered some great insights in the value of involving user in the development process, the importance of building teams consisting of the right people who care about the project, and some innovative methodologies to get the job done.

If you consider yourself a User Advocate and User Experience professional, the next meeting will be October 23 at the newmic.
