World Usability Day 2008 - Sydney

What would it take to get out of your car?

In honour of the theme of transportation, which brings focus to the design of user friendly forms of transport, transport systems, processes and infrastructure, the Usability Professionals Association (UPA) Sydney Chapter have asked the question “What would it take to get you out of your car?".

By asking this question, we are bringing focus on the issues and challenges that face alternate forms of transportation in and around Sydney. We believe that by exploring how user-centred design can be applied in these areas, alternatives modes of transport can become more attractive than the over reliance we have on our motor vehicles.

We have planned a great day, with very interesting presentations, activities and exhibitions...so be sure to add it to your diary and join us on the day.
