Greetings WOW Members and Web Professionals everywhere.
For today’s podcast, I reached out to Abbey Tosic, eHub Design and Usability Lead at 3M. Abbey is also a WOW member and the recipient of one of a number of Design and Development conference event scholarships that WOW provides to its members annually. In addition to sharing her thoughts on the challenges that she faces on the job, Abbey also shares her perspective on the value of attending and staying connected to the community. Abbey will also be podcasting live from the Future of Web Design Conference in London this year, May, 2011. We look forward to hearing from her and her perspective of the event and the take aways in future podcast.
I’m ecstatic to be attending The Future of Web Design Conference in London this year, May, 2011. I’ll be reviewing the conference for the World Organization of Webmasters. If you’re thinking about where you may want to go to learn more about Web Design conferences in your area, check out their detailed site. This site is the Mecca Library of Web Design Conferences and they post comments about what you can expect from each one. A valuable tool for your planning.
The Future of Web Design conference plans to cover the topics that matter most to today’s web designers and front end developers, including HTML5, CSS3, typography, wireframing, iphone and UX. They have dozens of professionals from around the globe coming in to give talks, and a full day workshop with 4 subject matters to chose from.
This year’s conference will take place at The Brewery in London. The Brewery has played host to many of London’s most iconic events. Nestled amongst the city’s high rise high flyers, the Brewery provides a welcome respite for guests seeking solace from today’s identikit venue options.
Style, workshops, smart folks talking about what’s up and coming… are you going? You should! If you are, come find me. We’ll talk mobile and user design over a strongbow at the pub. What could be better?

Haha, nice interview and congrats Abbey on your win. Let’s be sure to meet up in London. And Bill – you know how I adore you, but you do realize after all these years you still can’t pronounce my last name? 😉

Molly,
So nice to hear from you again! When you’re right your right and you got me. I knew better and I should have edited that. Maybe I’ll stay up late and edit. :–)
You’re the best of the best Molly and I miss you a lot.
Bill
