Yesterday I had computer issues, but today I’ve got project notes. Here’s what I’m working on:
UUX Site Redesign
One of STC’s special interest groups (SIGs), the Usability and User Experience SIG, has a team working on the web site. Currently, the site is not updated very often, which is probably one reason why it doesn’t come up in a lot of usability searches. It’s got some great templates and scripts, though, and be on the lookout for more current resources there. In the meantime, take this survey to let us know what you want.
My Sister’s Wedding Ceremony
My sister is having a destination at Copper Mountain Resort in Colorado, and I am officiating. She and her fiancé have picked their vows, but it’s up to me to come up with the rest of the inspiration, with their approval. We’ve picked a couple possible readings for me to weave in to my pre-vows talk. I’m essentially writing a speech, which I haven’t done in a while. I need to send them a draft this weekend.
Chapterly Happenings
There are several projects going for the Suncoast Chapter right now, and, happily, I am not technically in charge of any of them. It’s so nice to share the kitchen with other cooks.
STC Associate Fellow Steve Coscone is about to send me our list of candidates for the chapter officer election. We have candidates! So much more exciting than last year.
Member Berry Anderson and Chapter President Michael Pleasant are working on the awards banquet for FTCC. I just had to order the food and arrange for pretty tablecloths.
Gina Fevrier is going to help maintain the chapter web site. You can’t see me but I’m jumping up and down right now. One, because I get to work with Gina and two, because our site is going to improve. It needs some serious TLC.
Lastly, we’re having Rahel Bailie come for a workshop about online branding. And I’m not in charge of promoting it; USF Tech Comm student Ryan Seay is. Hi, Ryan.
Steve Cascone pointed out that we’re starting to look rather chapterly, and I have to agree.
