Sites for HCI Peeps to check out
Shout out to all my HCI (Human-Computer Interaction) homies out there, wooty woot. Just wanted to recommend a couple sites for you to check out, you know, just to stay on top of your game and such. I was thinking of hiding these in links in my blog over the next few days, but on second thought I've decided to be more forthright. So here's my list...feel free to add more in the comments.
I check out the research areas of a bunch of companies fairly regularly...the basics are:
Of course, I also read a ton of blogs quite regularly. Bloglines is my aggregator of choice. Check it out, it's not as technical as it may sound. If you're interested in reading blogs by students in the School of Informatics, check out Planet Informatics.
All you humans out there should also check out the Wikipedia...a great first place to stop for information on anything and everything. Other cool wikis for Informatics folk are the Design Wiki, Design Club Wiki, and Echoes Wiki. BTW, for those of you who are lost right now, here are some definitions for the word Wiki and a better explanation.
Oh, and while you're at it, don't get caught in a bubble.
