After blogging here on a mish-mash of topics for a number of years, I'm shuttering this blog and moving on to a new domain, focused on web development and technical management. I hope you'll join me at Obi-Wan Kimberly!

Are you In Control?

The good folks at AIGA Cincinnati have announced a new Web design conference — the In Control Web Design Workshop Conference — which will be held June 11-12 in Cincinnati.

Organized largely by Christopher Schmitt, it’s a single-track conference of longer workshops. Unlike other conferences where sessions last an hour, speakers at this conference will be in control (ha!) of the mic for nearly two hours. This will give attendees the opportunity to really dive into the topics being presented!

I’m leading a workshop on my favorite topic — style guides and standards. After many years of creating and maintaining style guides, and many requests from readers like you, I’m finally working on some templates which will be part of the materials given away at this session.
