To say that things are hectic at work--and at home--would be a major understatement. (In fact, I'm planning out Christmas day so I can get in a couple of hours of wireframing.) But we've also pulled together some major plans for 2009 at nForm--which makes all the busy-ness more fun that frantic.

One really exciting thing we're organizing in May 2009 is the Web Strategy Summit (or WSS09). This event will bring together two subjects we're passionate about: interactive technologies (like the web, mobile and social media) and creating real value for organizations. I've posted a longer introduction on the nForm blog that explains our plan for WSS09:

We thought there was a niche for a new event that

• puts strategy first and focuses on how people are using interactive technologies to transform their organizations and markets (stuff we think is really cool).
• is relevant to decision makers as well as designers, developers, marketers and other hands-on roles.
• makes sense in today's economy (talking about how you create value with your online investments has probably never been more urgent than it is today).

The Web Strategy Summit brings together those ideas into an afforable package.

Right now we have five speakers lined up: Avinash Kaushik (Google), Jeremiah Owyang (Forrester), Christina Wodtke (LinkedIn), Jay Goldman (author of The Facebook Cookbook) and Henning Fischer (Adaptive Path).

If you read this blog you'll have at least a passing interest in web strategy and related topics--think about saving May 4 & 5, 2009 to attend this event. We'll have more details on the sessions and workshops in mid-January. In the meantime, feel free to send me an email if you have questions.

(And happy holidays, too!)
