HAVE AN IDEA FOR A TALK OR EVENT?

This evening’s theme originated with Danielle’s idea for a talk, and it’s a great example of how IxDA SF members add their voices to the conversation about design and its practice. Have an idea for a talk? Are you passionate about a topic you think will be of interest to other IxDA SF members? Let us know! Post a discussion or catch up with Maria (@mcordell), Nick (@ncawthon), or Sharon (@luckybird)!
