Web Directions - final thoughts
OK, so Friday afternoon at Web Directions consisted of me introducing Thomas Vander Wal, who did an interesting talk, titled ‘Information Architecture for the Come to Me Web’
I then introduced Derek Featherstone, who followed Thursday’s talk with Designing for accessibility: More simple techniques that make a difference.
Finally, Mark Pesce did a fantastic closing keynote, full of optimism and future thinking, with his talk, You-biquity.
Afterwards, thanks to Sitepoint, it was off to the Pumphouse Bar for the closing party, then more drinks at Star Bar, dinner for some at a Chinatown restaurant, and back to the hotel around 2.30am.
It’s now late Saturday afternoon, and I am relaxing at the airport lounge, before catching a flight home in a few hours.
