What is World Usability Day?
World Usability Day was founded to ensure that the services and products important to life are easier to access and simpler to use. WUD focuses on raising awareness and visibility of usability and user-centered design and is organized every year by volunteers and local event coordinators from around the world. Whether usability professionals or just enthusiastic (or frustrated) users, each participant makes a contribution to making life easy.
On Nov 5, 2007, World Usability Day Bangalore will be hosted at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore.
The event is being organized and supported by UPA Bangalore, CHI Bangalore, leading usability companies, and usability enthusiasts. The event will include designers, technologists, usability professionals and public attendees.
WUD Bangalore 2007 will focus on applying ‘usability’ and ‘design’ thinking to making life easier and more usable for the common man (us!) in India. Among other areas the event will focus on Healthcare, Education, and Government Services and other public services and utilities that touch our lives everyday. It will include how Information and Communication Technologies and services can make this happen.

What will happen?
(World Usability Day Bangalore will be continuously updated at http://upabangalore.org and http://chibangalore.mypublicsquare.com/view/world-usability-day )
Acid Test:
A team of usability professionals will be conducting usability testing of public services websites including the Indian Railways and the Indian Airlines in October. The results from this public usability study will be shared with the audience to raise awareness about the usability of public services.
Presentations and talks by experts:
Hear from real world experts who have tried to make a difference in public services including healthcare, e- governance and the healthcare space. Also, we will have experts who will bring in the focus of usability and how it can make a difference in the public services and healthcare in India and the emerging markets. Speaker bios will be uploaded shortly to the Wiki.
Workshop on designing new public services:
Participants will be divided into groups and given the challenge of designing new services around the theme of “"How usability can impact public services and healthcare in India". They will be provided with materials for brainstorming and data points and constraints for informing their designs. The panel of experts will judge the best entry at the event – the winning team will be given a special award.
Raves, Rants, and Ramblings: (Impromptu presentations, discussions, food, and photo sessions).
The event will contain several opportunities for breaking into smaller groups where people from the community can present and discuss issues or new methods. There will be spaces for informal community discussions, idea sharing and networking.
