What was on in Canberra this week

aka living on the wrong side of Oz

Sometimes I am just stuck on the wrong side of Australia, Ruth Ellison just posted some excellent upcoming events and I am only a little jealous, particularly:

Canberra Web Standard Group

Canberra Web Standards Group is happening tomorrow! We have two interesting topics covering GovDex: a tool to support collaboration across government agencies, and Wikis at work and it’s FREE.

More information and registration can be done at

IA Cocktail Hour

Another free event for the Information Architects (IA) community and those interested in this space. This will be held tomorrow straight after Web Standards Group meeting.

More information can be found at

I might be a little late posting them here, they are already underway right now.But if you are in Canberra, you should pay attention to the Web Standards Group and IA Canberra sites or Ruth’s blog. These are great opportunities to learn and network.

    Thanks for the link Nick. Both events went well. I’ll try to write them up tomorrow :)

    I know how you feel. It’s a little like being in hicks ville in Perth sometimes.

    But there have been events in Perth, its just no one is promoting them blogwise. Or maybe we have just run out of people to present. It would be nice to get some people out side of the usual crew that are doing some exciting work to present in Perth. I’m 100% convinced that they exist. They have just been hiding!
