This past weekend I volunteered at the D2WC in downtown Kansas City. It was put on by the local Adobe User Group KCWebCore and was packed with great information. The sessions fairly crackled with good ideas and a hearty camaraderie between professionals in the Web industry.
My favorite quote was from Chad Udell who said something along the lines of, “Stop using ‘Lorem Ipsum.’ It’s not doing anyone any good.” So true since clients always get hung up on it and designers/developers may rely too much on its look while not thinking about how the real data will appear in the page.
All in all, a great conference. Here’s hoping it continues to grow.
