Guidelines for panel presenters
Guidelines for panel presenters
02/01/2005 08:42 PMSteve Boback sent this
around to the Blog
Business Summit presenters. I thought it was pretty
salient.....
Based on my experience, various critical posts made by attendees of
previous blog conferences, and reading/listening to the transcripts
and session recordings available from other blog events, I have some
culled some guidelines largely based on comments from attendees at
other conferences.
* AIM HIGH: Attendees will forgive sessions that contain a
significant percentage of new or unfamiliar material. They will be
merciless if you teach them "stuff I already knew".
* PRAGMATIC INFO: The one main thing I'd like to emphasize is that
we should all present information that helps people execute on
better--more profitable business blogging NOW. Our audience wants
tools and techniques that they can leverage asap when they get back to
the office. For example, let's not talk too much about what protocols,
platforms, or standards SHOULD win various standards battles. Please
focus on how to use (today) the ones that WILL win. Our audience
doesn't have time and $$ to spend on investing in "great" and/or
"future" technologies and then end up being orphaned. As we have all
learned the hard way, "best" does not necessarily mean "enduring".
* HOW-TO FOCUS: This is a how-to event. At all costs avoid the
tendency to fall into the trap of talking about how cool this all is,
how we can all change the world, or any subject that veers out of the
how-to arena. There is no shortage of conferences that will
pontificate, self-congratulate, and debate for hours on how blogs can
liberate humanity and eliminate global warming. This is not one of
them.:)
* AVOID THE ECHO CHAMBER: This conference is about bloggers
teaching effective businesses-related strategies and tactics, not so
much about bloggers talking to bloggers about blogging. That being
said, bloggers that successfully provide
sales/marketing/pr/collaborative benefits to businesses have a lot to
tell those bloggers that aspire to do the same. One key note to
remember--if something has already been said by someone on the podium,
avoid repeating it.
* TALKING ABOUT YOUR PRODUCTS/SERVICES: It's like salt on a steak.
A very small amount carefully applied can be okay. More than just a
touch and the whole thing tastes pretty bad. People hate paying for a
commercial. A slide at the beginning and a mention at the end are
about it, in our experience.
* CUT TO THE DEMO: Show. Don't just tell. Get out of PowerPoint
(or
whatever) and *demonstrate* what you're talking about.
* REPEAT THE QUESTION: With questions from the audience, repeat the
question. This is a constant complaint from attendees. It also allows
you to recast a problematic question in your own terms.
* DON'T GET SIDETRACKED: Wait for questions until the end. If you
get a specialized or off-topic question, don't get sidetracked. Recast
the question or ask the person to see you after the session.
* DON'T ARGUE: If you're participating in a panel, don't fight.
Don't be acrimonious. People generally like it when speakers disagree
in an informative, interesting way. They hate it when they argue.
* CROSS REFERENCE. Please attend other conference sessions and
refer to them in your presentations. It puts your content in context
and avoids repetition. Give your attendees cross-refs to other
sessions.
* STAY ON TIME: Start and end on time. We keep to a *strict*
timetable, and we'll have the hook ready. Attendees really like it
when we stay on schedule. Also, do not end your session more than 2-3
minutes before the allotted time.
Web design and usability guidelines
Web design and usability guidelines
11/02/2003 01:03 AMUsability.gov's Research-Based Web
Design & Usability Guidelines lose instant credibility for
being available only as a 39.2 MB
PDF file, with all
of the usability and accessibility problems that brings with it. I'm
on a fast connection here so I downloaded them anyway to have a look.
There's actually a lot of good things I can say about them - the
document is attractively laid out, the guidelines clear and easy to
follow and each is backed up by references to academic research (hence
the title). There are however some guidelines with which I completely
disagree, in particular the ones in chapter 4, entitled "Hardware and
Software":
4:1 Design for Common Browsers
Guideline: Design, develop and test for the most common
browsers.
Comments: Designers should attempt to accommodate ninety-five
percent of
all users. Ensure that all testing of a website is done using the most
popular
browsers.
Rubbish. Designers should attempt to accommodate 100% of all users
(in as much as content should be accessible to them), which really
isn't difficult if you stick to the standards rather than designing
with a particular browser in mind. The 95% statistic is particularly
worrying as they link to The Counter.com as a source of browser
statistics, which currently shows Internet
Explorer as holding 93% of the market.
4:2 Account for Browser Differences
Guideline: Do not assume that all users will have
the same browser features, and will have set the
same defaults.
Comments: Visually impaired users tend to select larger fonts, and
some users
may turn off backgrounds, use fewer colors, or use font overrides. The
designer should find out what settings most users are using, and
specify on
the website exactly what assumptions were made about the browser
settings.
Great guideline, lousy comment. How does specifying on a site what
assumptions were made about the browser settings help anyone? It's
almost like having "best viewed in Internet Explorer at 1024x768 with
32 bit colour" plastered on to the front page. No one is going to
change their settings for your site, so telling them what is assumed
isn't going to help them one iota.
Tellingly, the guidelines make no mention of using web standards or
validating pages anywhere in the document. While there's lots of
useful stuff in there, this omission (and the clangers highlighted
above) mean the overall package should be examined with a critical
eye.
