Somewhere in the inner part of Canberra, like the National Library, is
likely to be the 'fairest' option.

Are we looking for somewhere that is free of charge?

Cheers

The National Library’s Fourth Floor meeting room might meet this requirement.  It’s often used for after-work professional meetings.

 

Of course, we’d have to ask them first.

Subject: [canberra_ia_community] IA Cocktail Hour: Venue

 

Hi folks,

probably the most consistent suggestion that I receive as convener of
the Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is that the SMS office is not accessible
enough - that is, it's too hard for some people to get to the airport.
The traffic situation has deteriorated, certainly. I know that Julie
raised it as an issue based on feedback received frm group members.

I grant that we may attract more people if there is an alternate venue
- it is worth a go.

What I'd like to suggest is that over the next month and a half we
think about venue - my idea of what we need (and granted that this is
something we need to discuss as a group) is a relatively quiet space
with projection facilities and if possible an internet connection.
Access to bar facilities is a traditional thing but probably a "nice
to have" rather than a "must have".

What do you think?

Thanks, Andrew

Hi Jessica,

 

My suggestion would be to go with “iacanberra” as a tag for now and hope that they fix it.

What tag are we going to use to indicate a book that is relevant to the

Hi Folks,

after some initial teething issues (i.e. my forgotten password) there
is now an iacanberra group on librarything.com.

As discussed at the last IA Cocktail Hour, we're going to experiment
with using librarything to create a shared virtual library.

Because the librarything.com group is members-only, you will need to
email me (or contact facibus via Twitter) and let me know your
librarything username - I will then send you an invitation.

Steve Collins/Donna Maurer: theoretically you have invites already to
test the process. Grateful you let me know if they came through.

Best regards, Andrew

Hi Folks,

 

Matthew Hodgson is giving a presentation on prototyping and user-centred design at the next Australian Business Analysis Association meeting - 5:30pm-7:30pm on Tuesday 4 December.

 

If you haven’t heard Matt talk on rapid prototyping and conceptual design you should think about attending – he knows the subject backwards and is an entertaining and informative speaker.

 

I am told that there will be wine and nibbles, and that you don’t have to be a BA or a project manager to attend.   

 

Please see the attached flyer if interested and RSVP ASAP if you can attend.

 

Best regards, Andrew

Hi everyone
 
Do you mind taking a few minutes to complete the attatched form to give us some feedback on the IA Cocktail hour.
 
This is a chance to think back to a couple of past IA cocktial hours that you have attended and to tell us what it was about them that you liked.
 
It is also a chance to feedback on things that you would like to see done differently.
 
What will be done with the information?
 
  • We are going to work through the general categories of informaiton that is fed back to us this coming thursday to find the main themes of what is working and what could make the IA cocktail hour better
  • The we are going to think and extend some metaphors of what the cocktail hour offers people
  • Lastly we will do some broad based planning around the sorts of things that people would like to do in future IA cocktail hour sessions

So if you can squeeze the time in please feed back anyting that you would like to share with us on the attatched spreadsheet.

 

With many thanks in advance

 

Julie Hale

Subject: [canberra_ia_community] Canberra IA Cocktail Hour: Thursday 15 November 2007

 

Hi all,

The next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is on Thursday 15 November 2007.


We have two topics:

-          iacanberra.org library: we’ve talked about having a virtual library over the last month or so – and now it is time to put something in place. We all own some books that we don’t mind loaning to friends, and we don’t mind lending them from other friends – but how do you know what everyone else has and where your books are at the moment? What we’d like to do is use an existing online system (like librarything) or roll our own – so that those that want to share their books can.

-          Change Manager extraordinaire Julie Hale has been running a study on where we are as a group and where we want to go over the last couple of months. Julie would like to present the findings of her study so far so that we can discuss them.

 

Time: 17:30-19:00
Day/Date: Thursday 15 November 2007
Venue: SMS Management & Technology
Ground Floor, 8 Brindabella Circuit
CANBERRA AIRPORT ACT

Please RSVP as soon as possible for catering purposes.

Parking: please remember that Brindabella Park has different parking arrangements than those found in many parts of Canberra - there is free parking for the first hour adjacent to the entrance of 8 Brindabella Circuit. After that you have to move your car or pay for parking (and this applies past the end of the meeting).

PS: if you are not already a member - there is a contact list for the Canberra IA Cocktail Hours: you can join via http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/canberra_ia_community or subscribe to updates to the Canberra IA Community Blog via

Hi all,

The next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is on Thursday 18 October 2007.

Ruth Ellison from DIMA will present on Accessibility. Accessibility is
often one of the last things to be considered when developing a
system. This can happen for many reasons, including the organisational
context and general misconceptions about accessibility. We will be
looking at a case study of the challenges and learnings of
implementing accessibility in a Government organisation.

Time: 17:30-19:00
Day/Date: Thursday 18 October 2007
Venue: SMS Management & Technology
Ground Floor, 8 Brindabella Circuit
CANBERRA AIRPORT ACT

Please RSVP as soon as possible for catering purposes.

Parking: please remember that Brindabella Park has different parking
arrangements than those found in many parts of Canberra - there is
free parking for the first hour adjacent to the entrance of 8
Brindabella Circuit. After that you have to move your car or pay for
parking (and this applies past the end of the meeting).

Ruth Ellison cannot make it and her case study talk is currently scheduled for October.

We have two speakers lined up for this month:

  • Matthew Hodgson will speak on Culture and Social Computing, and
  • I (Andrew) will speak on the IA Blogosphere.

We follow a meet'n'greet/presentation/chat format, with the emphasis on information exchange at practitioner level. This is a great opportunity to talk with other IAs in Canberra, have a few drinks, and chat about work.

Time: 17:30-19:00
Day/Date: Thursday 30 August 2007
Venue: SMS Management & Technology
Ground Floor, 8 Brindabella Circuit
CANBERRA AIRPORT ACT

Please RSVP as soon as possible for catering purposes.

Parking: please remember that Brindabella Park has different parking arrangements than those found in many parts of Canberra - there is free parking for the first hour adjacent to the entrance of 8 Brindabella Circuit.

Hi Folks,

as discussed at the 30 August meeting, we're revamping the
iacanberra.org blog - there is a report on the last meeting
(containing future directions for the group) at:
http://iacanberra.org/2007/09/03/canberra-ia-cocktail-hour-30-august-2007/

You can subscribe to the blog at http://iacanberra.org/wp-admin/ -
eventually there will be some newsletter software attached to the blog
such that it can replace this mailing list.

Thanks, Andrew

Hi Folks,

 

The next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is proposed for next Thursday evening (30 August 2007) – it was supposed to be this evening, but time got away from me this month. I’m chasing down a couple of speakers at the moment – if there is a topic that you would like to present, or to see, please let me know.

Hi folks,

the next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is on Thursday 19 July 2007.

There are two topics planned:
- The ACT Government is considering its online presence; Kerry Webb
will discuss some of the possible improvements and how they may affect
the user community.
- Stephen Hall is hosting a discussion on the use of tablet PCs in IA work

We follow a meet'n'greet/presentation/chat format, with the emphasis
on information exchange at practitioner level. This is a great
opportunity to talk with other IAs in Canberra, have a few drinks, and
chat about work.

Time: 17:30-19:00
Day/Date: Thursday 19 July 2007
Venue: SMS Management & Technology
Ground Floor, 8 Brindabella Circuit
CANBERRA AIRPORT ACT

Parking: please note that Brindabella Park has different parking
arrangements than those found in many parts of Canberra - there is
free parking for the first hour adjacent to the entrance of 8
Brindabella Circuit. After that you have to move your car or pay for
parking (and this applies past the end of the meeting).

PS: there is a contact list for the Canberra IA Cocktail Hours: you

We're all different.

I liked the previous design that allowed an easy scan of news items in
all topics on the one screen.

Not until you told me.  But I only read ABC by RSS anyway.

That said, I agree.  It's very nice.

My take is that the ABC is one of the few government agencies
(technically it
still is) that truly understands the web and new media generally -
blogs, Second
Life, feeds, encouraging client (audience) feedback.  It's like
social computing
heaven.  I'd love to see their metrics on staff and audience engagement
satisfaction, retention and knowledge management/collaboration.  I'd
hazard a
guess that they show good news.

Many federal government bodies in Australia (and probably state, too)
would do
well to look at appropriate parts of the ABC's social computing/
engagement model
and adopt.  Real soon now.  Otherwise you just get more of what I
blogged last
week - http://www.acidlabs.org/2007/06/28/roadblocks-and-steamrollers/.

Hi folks,

did anyone notice when http://www.abc.net.au/news/ changed? Thoughts?
I like it a lot - it seems more "bloggy", and perhaps that is just
what I am used to now.

Cheers, Andrew
