PDX Web Innovators

TiddlyRose will be an informal meet-up of TiddlyWiki enthusiasts. It is timed to coincide with the OSCon 2008 conference, which is being attended by Jeremy Ruston, the original creator of TiddlyWiki, along with some of his colleagues from Osmosoft.

The event is open to the public, and all fans of TiddlyWiki are welcome to attend! Meet in the Jax Bar on the roof terrace.

Look for Phil: he'll be wearing a black polo shirt, with Osmosoft written on the front, and the BT logo on the back.

And if you're wondering where we got the name TiddlyRose...you can find out how on the Portland Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portland%2C_Oregon

Timothy Chou (the former President of Oracle on Demand) has over twenty-five years of experience in the technology business. Chou has been recognized as an industry visionary on the evolution of the software industry from the traditional model to Software as a Service (SaaS). Seven is a follow on book to The End of Software which predicted the rise of software delivered as a service. Now that this transition is happening Seven provides a framework for the producers and consumers of software to take the next steps.

Presented by Jen Young & Matt Arnold, Second Story

Museums and cultural institutions are increasingly required to balance visitors' expectations of interactive presentations in the museum with the institutional goal of promoting forms of social interaction that enrich the visitor experience. To meet these needs, institutions are turning to multi-user, or group, interactive scenarios.

Jen and Matt , members of the stellar Second Story Studios team, will show how understanding people’s needs and tendencies—and the learning curve for people that must be managed in multi-user experiences—can be squared with innovations offered by ever-changing technology and hardware, design obstacles and opportunities, and the desire to wow visitors while offering designs that are appropriate to the content.

If you are interested in multi-user interfaces, social media or interactive display design, please join us!
