What's Happening at MIX?

It's less than 6 weeks till MIX08. Here is some cool happening:

clip_image001Hear ye, hear ye!  MIX08 to debut the first ever MIX UX Track which is 3 days of solid content dedicated to creatives / designers.  Lou Carbone, David Armano, Dan Roam, Kim Lenox and others will speak.  In conjunction with Adaptive Path, the User Experience track is just one of the many great reasons for all types of designers and creative professionals to attend MIX this year. https://visitmix.com/2008/mixux.aspx

clip_image006 Perhaps you remembered last year’s MIX, in which we featured Flotzam, a WPF screensaver mash-up that showed MIX07 feeds from Facebook, Flickr, Twitter and blogs. Well, we are doing it again this year with a twist: we are running a contest and will feature community created skins of the application on the big screen and on the screensavers of the computers available to attendees at the show.  The best skin will win an XBOX 360. Entering the contest is easy: everything you need to know can be found here https://www.visitmix.com/blogs/News/403/ including links to screencasts and instructions that show how easy it is to do the restyle.
