The Australian Web Industry Association was proud to host its first speaking event of 2008 - Ideas4. The Perth web industry turned out in numbers to hear two great speakers talk about usability, accessibility, web start-ups and more, mingling with industry peers and supporting the work of the Australian Web Industry Association.

Lisa Herrod is the Principal Usability Consultant at Scenario Seven. The primary focus of her work is web usability, which she believes incorporates much more than just user testing. Drawing on a variety of disciplines, Lisa takes an holistic approach to web usability incorporating user research, accessibility, interaction design and web standards development.

Having started in the web during the last century, Lisa is occasionally caught making jokes about font tags, layout tables and shims. Nobody ever laughs.
