  interface design professional. But what if the real hurdle wasn't usabilit
 y\, but motivation? Josh will show you techniques to motivate people to sig
 n up for your web application\, from leveraging social influence to getting
  rid of the sign up form completely!\n\nJoshua Porter is the founder of B
 okardo Design\, an interface design and strategy shop focusing exclusively 
 on social web applications. He recently wrote the book "Designing for the S
 ocial Web". When he is not designing web sites\, Josh is speaking about it 
 at conferences or writing about it at bokardo.com. He lets off steam by roc
 k climbing and keeping up with his two-year old.\n\nRSVP:\nPlease send R
