What an experience! UUX held it's first Web seminar this morning. Apart from several technical glitches (in spite of multiple rehearsals and tech support calls earlier this week), people seemed to like it.

As presenter, it was odd talking to my computer screen and only knowing that somewhere out there were people who could hear me.

Eric Hughes, Web seminar coordinator, did an awesome job as moderator, despite problems getting people both phone and Web access. I could never had displayed the patience he displayed!

Now that we have passed this milestone, I am excited about planning more seminars. If you want to help, fill out the survey below and tell us what you want to learn about.
