If you haven't had a chance to take a look at the upcoming MIX08 sessions in Las Vegas, now isn't too late. Aside from a number of great tracks, there are a couple of nice new announcements I noticed today.
First is a contest.
A contest to restyle the MIX home page. Prize includes ticket to MIX08, three nights at the Venetian Hotel and US$1000 towards your travel. So, why is this good? Well they have a blog post on the visitmix site saying that only one person has submitted anything so far (24 January). Percentages are high that you could be successful. Designs must be submitted by 7 February.
And, there is a dedicated User Experience track at MIX08.
From the VisitMIX site:
It is official: 10 sessions will be dedicated to user experience during MIX08. It's so exciting to consider what Lou Carbone, Dave Armano, Dan Roam and the speakers from Adaptive Path are going to present. Microsoft is also going to talk about the evolution of the ribbon in Office.
Louis P. Carbone is a great speaker, and the line up will be fun. Hope to see everyone there.
