Web Directions Year round learning for product, design and engineering professionals

One of our favourite Australian digital/web folks, Seb Chan, has this to say about Web Directions today

Web Directions South is an event we always try to send team members along to to expand their technical and conceptual knowledge of where the web is heading. Paula’s going to be covering a broad range of Powerhouse activities and initiatives and encouraging developers to consider cultural datasets when they are experimenting with new projects. Paula’s in great company with some our teams’ favourite web people are speaking there this year.

On the Saturday (October 16), the Powerhouse is the venue for Web Directions’ Amped – a free ‘hack day’ with special guests from Web Directions and lots of challenges and prizes. If you work with data, are a web designer and work on the web, or are a developer then register and come along as there’ll be lots of great things going on and some great micro-talks as well.

We’re huge fans of the powerhouse here at Web Directions, constantly rethinking what a museum is, opening up their catalogs, engaging their audience as active participants, which Paula will be detailing in her presentation.

So, if you’ve not singed up yet, for Amped (which is free) at PowerHouse, or Web Directions South – then you’ve still got a little time, but the discount period ends next Friday, so get a move on!
