update Calagator::Event 1250469201 Accessibility Happy Hour Roll back

description Help us close out the year at the patio of Green Dragon for happy hour to network and discuss accessibility and the user experience! → Help us close out the year at the patio of Green Dragon for happy hour to network and discuss accessibility and the user experience! The Portland Accessibility and User Experience Meetup will address how to incorporate accessibility and universal design principles into project planning, user research, and UX evaluation. The purpose of this meet up is to host an ongoing conversation about how to design and build tools that are inclusive to the greatest number of people possible - meaning those with and without (dis)abilities. We intend to discuss topics related to accessibility policy and regulations, incorporating people with disabilities into an iterative project lifecycle, how to conduct UX research with diverse populations, automated and manual tools for UX evaluation, building accessibility into company policy and practice, and much more! A UX Universal and Inclusive Design meet up is timely as we see the Dept. of Justice handing down ruling after ruling requiring digital products and services to be accessible (i.e. Netflix, Redbox, Target, etc...). This meet up will provide a much needed resource for Portland based companies and individuals interested in accessibility, universal design, and inclusive design.

update Calagator::Event 1250469199 Guest Presenter: Gian Wild on Mobile Accessibility Roll back

description Join us at Puppet Labs for a presentation by Gian Wild on how to make your mobile sites accessible. You want to make sure your desktop site is fully accessible but now it is perhaps more important to make sure your mobile site or responsive web site is fully accessible to people with with disabilities. Many people with disabilities prefer using a mobile device to the desktop. WCAG2 was written before mobile devices were ubiquitous, and there are some accessibility issues unique to the mobile format, such as lack of keyboard, lack of mouse hover and reduced screen size. Gian will be talking about the most common problems and how you can avoid them. More about Gian Wild: Gian Wild is the CEO of AccessibilityOz an Australian company that is expanding into the U.S. Market. Gian has worked in the accessibility industry since 1998 and consulted on the development of the first Level AAA accessible web site in Australia. She ran the accessibility consultancy PurpleTop from 2000 to 2005 and built the accessibility tool, PurpleCop. Gian Wild spent seven years on the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Working Group and contributed to the W3C Evaluation and Repair Tools Working Group and the W3C Authoring Tools Accessibility Guidelines Working Group. She spent six years contributing to the development of WCAG2. In addition to her accessibility work, Gian is often asked to judge the accessibility aspect of web awards, having previously judged the Web Directions McFarlane Award, been the Accessibility Judge for FullCodePress (build a web site in a day) twice and has been the Accessibility Judge for the Australian Web Awards three years running. Soft drinks provided by Puppet Labs. → Join us at Puppet Labs for a presentation by Gian Wild on how to make your mobile sites accessible.

description nil → October's Tech Tuesday will be incorporating three of our favorite things: music, tech, and accessibility, into one evening – and we are so excited. We recently had the pleasure of being introduced to Myles de Bastion, Founder and Executive Director of CymaSpace. He is awesome, as is the work he and his team are doing at CymaSpace. CymaSpace is a non-profit technology incubator and performance venue in SE Portland that’s using cymatic technology to do some very cool stuff with the performing arts and accessibility. Cymatics is the science of wave phenomena (especially sound wave phenomena) and their visual and tactile representations. http://www.cymaspace.org/ CymaSpace’s mission is to make the performing arts more accessible and inclusive to Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities by supporting research and development of new and emerging cymatic technology, hosting workshops and forums, and supporting an in-house team of tech innovators. CymaSpace also presents live performing arts events enhanced by specialized equipment and installations which translate audio information into sight (light) and touch (vibration). We found Myles to be incredibly inspiring and motivational, and was absolutely thrilled when he agreed to participate in this month’s Meetup. He’ll be sharing his personal experience with hearing impairment, the motivations and passions behind CymaSpace, and the technologies (both software and hardware) being developed there. We will also be bringing in performers for music and a live demo of some of CymaSpace’s work. (More to be announced on this as we get closer to the date.) As a note, we’ll have ASL interpreters for Myles’ presentation, and are working to make the performance aspect of the evening accessible as well. Fingers are crossed that will happen! As usual, doors open at 5:45pm and the presentation starts at 6:30pm. I expect this one will run a little longer than usual, though, ending closer to 8:30pm. RSVP now and we'll see you on the 27th! Pizza and sodas will be in effect as well, as always.

create Calagator::Event 1250469212 Care and Feeding of Agile Teams Roll back

description nil → Teams are the engine of an Agile effort, but sometimes it seems that the organization sees them as a mere “resource.” They can get chewed up in organizational processes. As Agilists we need to be smart and proactive about the care and feeding of teams. So, what is the ideal size and composition a team? 7 +/- 2? Generalizing specialists? How do you scale teams? Do you have to scale teams? Do you always need the whole team in every conversation? You have your opinions and experiences. Come help your colleagues avoid the mistakes you have learned from. If you have current issues you’re worrying yourself over, bring them to those who have been there. We gather on the first Friday of every month in the back room at Ringlers. RSVP's to [email protected] are welcome but not required.

He will: * Give a summary of the origins of vacuum and gas diodes and related thermionic devices * Have show-n-tell demonstrations of the earliest and simplest of such devices: The diode. Come and learn something old! Vacuum tube diodes were put to use in the early days of radio as "detectors", because they were more robust and reliable than crystal, mechanical, and chemical contrivances used for this purpose. With further development, thermionic vacuum and gas diodes advanced to be capable of power rectification with ever greater efficiencies. Many example devices from the 1930's to 1950's will be available to examine. There will be orange, purple, and blue glows in the demonstrations!
