Pat’s Point of View

In November I’ll be appearing at the Ark Group conference Enhancing Online User Experience in Melbourne. My contribution will be an interactive discussion on “Documenting for interactive websites”.

Since it’s an interactive discussion, the most crucial part of the session will be input from the audience and the discussion that emerges. To that end I’ve launched a special forum to allow conference attendees (or anyone for that matter) to suggest the topics they would like discussed:

You can suggest a question, or vote for an existing question. I’ll try to cover as many as I can in the time available during the session.

I see two broad aspects to ‘documenting for interactive wesbites’, the first being design documentation and the second being project documentation. By design documentation I mean the sketches, wireframes, storyboards, flow charts or whatever other form of documentation that is used to document what is it that being developed. And by project documentation I mean those documents such as SOWs and project plans that assist with project management and logistics.

I’ll attempt to cover both aspects but ultimately the session will be run by audience participation, so get voting on the topics you want discussed!
