Aloha!
Unbeknownst to many people, Hawaii actually does have a rich and diverse technology community. Although, it seems that this community does not get together regularly for events. User Experience is not a common topic for local software events when they do happen in Honolulu, so I will be taking it upon myself to be a representative for this important aspect of our industry. There are a handful of online forums for the technology community in Hawaii and as I review them I will post their links. I know there are people in the Hawaii technology community who value User Experience, and it’s time to get us together and start to collaborate!
Please let me know if you are aware of any events or links that are missing from the Honolulu locale.
Mahalo!
