Meetup Conversation

Landon Welsh

Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss IXDF South Florida online meetup held on Apr 21, 2021. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.

Here is a bit more info for tomorrow night’s Zoom call.

I am hoping this meeting will give us all a chance to connect with people in our community. I plan to enter the chat and add my pronouns (they/them) next to my name. I welcome you all to add your pronouns so we can refer to each other accurately and with respect.

I look forward to having intros and then start a brief talk about, the bias that exists in Tech and how lack of accessibility is having an impact on the reach of our products. Even if you don’t know what I mean by bias and accessibility, this conversation is for you. I want to engage and network with local South Floridians about where we are and what we can achieve together. I will add a few resources below for you to take a look at if you would like.

I do hope this can be an ongoing discussion so don’t stress if you can’t make this one.

Saida Florexil

I would like to request closed captions. If you guys will be utilizing Zoom you can enable Zoom automatic captioning service. If you need help with it. I would be happy to help.


Landon Welsh

Hi Saida,

I am so glad you requested captions. I will absolutely have them available! I am looking forward to meeting you!

Nikki Huyer

Nikki Huyer

David Linke

Hi Nikki, I thought of the same, but i left the computer at 6:30 and didn't see your message. I would have joined ;)

We'll meet next time.

Best.

Mark McGuire

Yes, same here. I require captions in addition to ASL. Since it is a last-minute meeting, captions will do. Same with Saida, I can help. There are also a few South Florida-based MeetUp communities you can join.

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
