A/S/L? : Why collecting user data is about more than just forms

with Chad Gowler

We ask our users to give us a lot of personal data in order to provide rich experiences. People are complex and it is very easy to make assumptions about the most basic questions.

This talk will look at how to ask people about data in a way that is inclusive and helpful while still providing value. Using gender, age and name as examples, we will learn what the stress cases are and what other things we need to consider when we ask our users to trust us with their identity.

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.
