Make the world a better place and celebrate World Usability Day

Posted on Monday November 13, 2006 by Betsy Weber

Ever thought, "Why doesn't this work?" or "How do I make this easier?" Then, celebrate World Usability Day (WUD) with the Usability Professionals Association (UPA) tomorrow. It's all about promoting and raising the awareness of usability. Your participation will help make things better. And, you don't have to be a usability professional to participate.

There are events going on all over the world. To find a local event, please visit here. If you're not near a local event, it looks like there are several events online here.

At TechSmith, we will be celebrating World Usability Day! The whole Morae team and I will be attending the Michigan World Usability Day event at Michigan State University. If you're going, drop me a line (517.410.0030) and we'll meet up. I'll post pics from the event here on Flickr.

We are a proud sponsor of World Usability Day and provided the t-shirts for the events worldwide. If you get a WUD t-shirt, it would really make my day if you'd send us a pic wearing the t-shirt. Please e-mail it to me and we'll post it here.

Happy WUD!
