Sunday, April 19

How do your online interactions with users change in the world of Web 2.0? When and how do you design social media tools and rich interfaces that satisfy user needs and create engaging online experiences?

Web 2.0, for all the marketing hype, represents a significant shift in how people use the Web and how organizations leverage their online experience. That's why we've asked Steve Mulder and Riccardo La Rosa to give you a hands-on tour through the fundamental philosophies behind Web 2.0, revealing what Web 2.0 really is, what’s happening across the Web, what's working, and what opportunities might be right for you.

In this popular seminar, you'll take a deep dive into the elements of social media, openness, rich interfaces, and emerging digital interactions. When is the right time to create rich interfaces using Ajax or Flash, and what are the unique design and usability challenges for creating these engaging UIs?

In this full-day interactive seminar, the hands-on exercises and small group sessions will bring these issues and opportunities to life for your organization. You'll discover which Web 2.0 elements are right for you, how to design them, and what obstacles you might encounter. Steve and Riccardo will also share a ton of examples and behind-the-scenes stories of successful and failed projects. You'll want to choose this seminar if you are looking for an in-depth guided tour of what Web 2.0 can do for your applications.
