About This Event
Essentially, we put user experience professionals together with FLOSS software projects (free/ libre/open source) who have limited or no access to this kind of work. This event helps projects in need of usability work, evangelizes the user experience profession, and is open to all types of user experience professionals: from usability engineers, interaction designers, information architects to visual designers. UX Masters and PhD candidates are most welcome too. The event also welcomes open source developers with a passion for great usability and want to learn. These are important software projects, some with huge user bases already we are touching on: Mozilla software, Chandler, WiserEarth.org, SocialText…. to name a few!!
The event will be hosted at Google and food and drink will be provided for the whole day. Mozilla is sponsoring happy hours so we can unwind after a hard day of UX.
