One of my very favourite web designers, in fact thinkers, writers, and speakers about the Web is Douglas Bowman. Web Directions actually owes a lot to Douglas. He, Joe Clark and Dave Shea were all speakers at the first conference that Maxine and I helped organize, WE04, way back in 2004. We enjoyed all their company so much that we knew we had to do more conferences. So here, some years later, we have united the original contingent of international speakers, with many others, for Web Directions North.
Im particularly pleased that we have lured Douglas out of his self imposed retirement from speaking. In fact, the other organizers thought we had zero chance of getting him to speak - but through my charm, and threat to release previously unseen photos of Douglas snowboarding in New Zealand, he relented. I should have taken a side bet on whether heβd agree or not.
Douglas also very generously agreed to do an interview with me, that Digital Web Magazine is running this week. So head on over to Digital Web and hear what one of the webβs most influential designers has to say about the present and future of the web.
