About the User Experience Interest Group
The User Experience Interest Group (UXIG) is a group of Residents (and occasionally Lindens) interested in the Second Life user experience, including topics such as the SL viewer's user interface, issues faced by new Residents, accessibility for users with disabilities, and general user satisfaction, among others. UXIG was formed on October 30, 2008 after the Resident Experience Lindens announced that their weekly office hours would be reduced to once per month (and later cancelled them altogether). UXIG continues those weekly meetings, but in an unofficial, Resident-organized capacity.
UXIG meets every Thursday from 3-4 PM SLT at Hippotropolis in Second Life. Anyone and everyone is welcome to attend the meetings.
The discussion usually alternates between a specific preselected topic one week, then open discussion the next week. Discussion topics are selected from the topics list; if you have a topic request or suggestion, please add it to that list. The topic is announced each week via the SL-UX mailing list.
Many UXIG members also discuss user experience issues on the SL-UX mailing list. Several Lindens from the Resident Experience team also participate on that list and can answer questions about SL user experience.
Please direct questions and comments about UXIG to Jacek Antonelli (the group organizer), or to the SL-UX mailing list.
