[show notes]

Welcome to Screen Space, your podcast about creating usable, accessible, effective, and efficient web, blog, and digital media design for the everyday (and non-expert) designer. I am your host, Dr. Jennifer L. Bowie. In this episode Irsquo;ll talk about what is up with Screen Space.

I am providing only brief show notes here. I cover three things:

Update on my career

My plans for Screen Space

My recent publications

Updates on My Career

I recently took a position at a Senior Analyst of Usability Research at The Home Depot. I do usability research on their website and digital content, and I love it.

My Plans for Screen Space

Every other Monday (12:01 am) Irsquo;ll post a Screen Space Podcast
