Fall 2008 Usability Project Needs Your Help!

Usability is an area that we always seem to be a few steps behind in, but now is your chance to help us out to fix that. Two groups of students at the University of Michigan's School of Information are spending the semester working on ways to improve Gallery's usability, and they NEED your help! They are seeking some volunteers who are currently using Gallery and are willing to spend 30-45 minutes on the phone (or in person if you live in Ann Arbor, Michigan). As a small token of appreciation for your time, you'll get that warm fuzzy feeling for helping out an open source project and a $10 or more Amazon Gift Card.

This is your chance to voice your opinion and help thousands of Gallery users around the world create more enjoyable photo albums. Please email us the team at gallery [at] ctools.umich.edu with your phone number and available time slots for an interview. They will be conducting interviews between September 12 and September 24 2008. In addition, if you happen to be in Ann Arbor, Michigan, please let them know so they can conduct a face-to-face interview. If you have friends who use Gallery and have comments on their experiences, please refer this message to them. The team would love to talk to them as well.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email them or visit their project website at http://www.adamatorres.com/gallery-project/.
