I just started a new blog and it’s a collection of resources and websites that I like. Take a look at it if you have a chance. Hope you get some form of inspiration out of it.

Granite Peaks website, intranet, cms

Thursday, 9 October 2008 @ 23:51

It is always such a joy to work with a client that not only appreciates quality, beautiful work, but seeks it out. The physicians at Granite Peaks Gastroenterology in Sandy are experts in their field and have brought together state-of-the-art technologically and medical excellence to provide a fully-integrated digestive health center. To complete the automation and access of information, they needed some powerful digital tools. For them, I had the pleasure of designing and developing a website to highlight their services, physicians, staff, and facilities, and provide online bill-pay for patients. The project also included a staff intranet and a custom content management system and administration console.

The Eyes Have It (NUCHI Meeting – Thurs, June 26)

NUCHI will be holding a demo and discussion of the TOBII eye tracking system. Eye tracking systems are used in larger usability studies. This is a rare opportunity!

More info on eye tracking research can be found here: http://www.useit.com/eyetracking/

Here is the info from NUCHI:

What is NUCHI?
The Northern Utah chapter of the Association of Computing Machinery’s (ACM) Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI). *Yes, it’s a mouthful!*

Time & Location
7:00pm Thursday, June 26, 2008 at NextPage, 13997 S. Minuteman Drive, Draper. (map)

Topic
See a demonstration of a TOBII eye tracking system used in software usability analysis. Join in a discussion of what this technology can find that other methods can’t.

Also, see a new application of the Microsoft Ribbon technology and how it is being applied to navigate complex clinical software. This software is being developed with Microsoft Expressions Blend and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). This process is intended to let designers build the software interface and interaction and pass it directly to developers.

Carl Bechtold is an Intermountain Healthcare Human Factors Engineer on loan to the GE/Intermountain partnership. That partnership is developing an Enterprise Clinical Information System (ECIS) for Intermountain and commercial deployment through GE Healhtcare.

IxDA Utah Chapter

The Interaction Designers in Utah (IxDA) chapter was just recently started. For information and to join, visit their website:

http://ixdautah.collectivex.com/main/summary

“The IxDA is all about bringing interaction designers together. The life a designer is a busy one and we may not all be able to meet face to face as often as we’d like. This group site will help local IxDA members communicate, share ideas, inspire each other and hopefully help facilitate friendships around our passion for great design.”

Post to group through Google Wave

Thursday, 15 October 2009 @ 16:35

I have created a Google Group for us so that you may “wave” to everyone in the group via Google Wave. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a pretty URL or email address because they were already used and Google has a lame rule that they can only be used once, even if the previous instance has been deleted (which was by me, which makes it even more lame).

Visit the Google Group home page for more information. Join the group and then add the address “utah-graphic-arists@googlegroups.com” to your Google Contacts list. You can then add the group address to new waves and everyone will have access to it.

Note that Wave will bark that that user does not have a valid Wave account when you try to add it. Ignore that and simply strike the return key and the address will be added to your contact list.
