NEXT WEBINAR
Beyond the Polar Bear
by Mike Atherton
May 26, 2011    ASIS&T Members:  $25          Non-Members:  $59

       This webinar will explore how to design for a semantic 'web of
data', using case studies from the BBC's Food and Natural History products.
You'll learn how to unlock the potential of your content, create scalable
navigation patterns, achieve simply fabulous SEO and step confidently into
the world of open linked data.
       We'll reference Rosenfeld and Morville's seminal IA tome and discuss
what still holds true and what needs new thinking. The next web is here.
Stop worrying about the perfect taxonomy, and start worrying about making
your content findable, pointable, searchable and sharable.
       Mike Atherton (@mikeatherton) has lately been busy figuring out how
the BBC's archive of factual programming can be used to build popular
products. With more than 15 years in IA and product design, he is an
independent UX consultant who is passionate about sensible data structures,
and fights the good fight to ensure user experience extends outside the
boundaries of any one website.
       An enthusiast of evidence-based design and content strategy, Mike
evangelises to management types on the need to think beyond business drivers
and make stuff people actually care about. He has spoken on topics as
diverse as Domain Modelling and Disneyland at conferences in the UK and the
US.
