Meet-Up Discussion

Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss IXDF South Florida online meet-up 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.

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.


Hi Saida,

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

Hi Landon….are we still meeting tonight?

I was wondering the same, still waiting for the meting to start

Same here, it says waiting for host.

Jonathan I see you are working on user research….are you a researcher?

Well it doesn’t seem that we will get on with Landon tonight. I have a free zoom account shallowing I make a meeting and we talk for 30 min or so since we are here?

if anyone is up for a conversation…I’ll be here for next 15 minutes

sorry we miss this evening….look forward to next time.

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.

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.

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

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meet-up (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 meet-ups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
