Mozilla Design Jam (Ann Arbor, MI, USA)

| 6:00 pm | to | 8:00 pm |
At the University of Michigan, Duderstadt Center, Design Lab One The SOCHI and SCSI student groups have joined together with SourceForge to bring you the school year’s first design jam. At the event, participants will answer Mozilla’s call for participation, which requests that we put our heads together to come up with revolutionary new ideas for a browser, from a simple improvement on how new tabs work to a more complete browser interface redesign. You don’t have to be a Firefox user or an HCI student to attend. Everyone is welcome to share browsing habits, frustrations, and ideas. The groups will follow up with the ideas generated at this event during two additional design jams later in the semester at which they will sketch ideas and create prototypes. This is an opportunity to build experience and portfolio materials in interface design and contribute to open source in a way that matters with no long-term commitment. SourceForge will provide T-shirts to all the participants. If you plan to attend, RSSVP on Facebook to ensure enough pizza for all ( http://www.facebook.com/n/?event.php&eid=23492638077 ).
