With allergy season well underway, the title of our first talk for this month’s meetup is more than appropriate. Hopefully the pollen count doesn’t keep you away though because our April meetup is sure to be a good one:

The Talks:

Talking germs, flying phlegm & other juvenile joys of illustration

Charles Akins – AkinsTudio.com
A brief look at the career of illustrator, Charles Akins.

Inside the GreyBox

Aaron Quinn (@aaronquinn) & Bob Galmarini (@bgalmar) – {e} house studio
Aaron and Bob are coming all the way from Charleston, SC to give an introduction to UI Greyboxing. They’ll explain the benefits and how it fits into your workflow from early problem solving to usability testing. This talk will be a followup to their popular blog post “Adding Grey Boxing To Our Web Workflow“.

Featured Book:

Thanks to the user group partnerships advertised in the sidebar, we’ll be giving away a free book each month. This month we’ll be giving away a copy of Before & After:How to Design Cool Stuff by John McWade. We’ll choose a random attendee from the sign-in sheet, so be sure to show up and sign-in for a chance to win.

When: April 28th, 2010 at 6pm
