UXnet survey

UXnet currently has a number of initiatives underway, and part of our plan for 2008 includes a questionnaire to better understand who our stakeholders are. We have designed a very quick survey that we invite you to complete.

• Check out the survey

This survey will take you less than 5 minutes to complete, but will give the Board of Directors a good overview of some key information. The survey is completely anonymous, and no answers can be attributed to any individual.

Also, we are looking for information from across the industry. We are therefore asking everyone to forward the survey link to people they think are involved in a related discipline, or who have interest in user experience, but who may not be directly involved in the UXnet organization itself. Our intention is to collect information concerning everyone related to this field, in order that UXnet may effectively align itself for future growth and success.

We very much appreciate your time & effort. Thank you.

Survey: IA in the real world

Patrick Kennedy is is running an online survey on how people go about practicing Information Architecture in the real world, in particular how agencies “do IA”.

Pat wants to both confirm and challenge his own understandings of:

• the way agencies work and how IA fits into their processes
• who it gets done by
• how it might be possible to give agencies the skills they need to perform better in this regard

The survey will take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete and he’s giving away prizes to boot.

You’ll find the survey at: http://www.gurtle.com/survey/index.php?sid=61824

If you don’t work in an agency, you can still help me out by forwarding it on to your clients, peers and friends who do work in agencies.

The survey will run until the end of September.
