UXCamp DC 2011 at Goethe-Institut / German Cultural Center
January 8, 2011 from 9am to 5:30pm
UXCamp DC is an ad-hoc unconference and is part of the larger BarCamp movement. The focus of this camp is user experience–online and offline. There is no set agenda until everyone gathers. Attendees are required to participate to some degree: either by leading a discussion, showing a demo, or by creating another type of collaborative session.

"I'm really enjoying this book. It's especially thought-provoking since I am listening to a library audio version on my Metro commute. It's 12 hours unabridged, and I plan on a 2nd listen to jot notes for our discussion. See you then!"
Join the DC UX Bookclub in discussing the book Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do. While not specifically about UX, the book does explore the cognitive psychology of Traffic, a subject that should be familiar to anyone in the DC area. Let's see if we can find lessons we can use off the road.
