dholbachgood morning08:01
mainerrorI had such a great idea for the toolkit yesterday but I forgot it.09:29
nuthinkingmainerror: maybe hypnosis could help! ;)09:31
mainerrorheh09:31
mainerrorI was inspired by something I also forgot so if I manage to find what inspired me I'll definitely remember. :P09:31
mainerrorOn a side note. I bought a nice book yesterday. "The Design of Everyday Things" by Donald Norman.09:33
mainerrorI was told it is a good book on user experience design.09:33
nuthinkingmainerror: it's a bit outdated, with Emotional Design, Norman changed a bit his opinion09:40
mainerrorMhmm. I'll buy that one next then.09:41
mainerrorI'll probably go for a couple, if not all of those too http://www.abookapart.com/products/09:42

MacSlowwendar, is there an IRC-meeting regarding "community design" later this afternoon again? Not sure if the last one was the start of a weekly meeting or just a single one on the occasion of kicking it off.11:57

cjohnstonCould I get feedback on http://ubuntuone.com/5MsVSEBMHGebYAmi8eUByw please. It is adding the little 'chat bubble' icon to http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-us-florida/260/detail/  - I don't know that it is intuitive, but not sure what might be better.19:54
svwilliamsthank you cjohnston !19:55
cjohnston:-)19:55
cjohnstonthe point of the image is to link directly to the IRC logs for that particular agenda item19:55
svwilliamsit shows up only if the link to the log exists for that agenda item19:55
cjohnstondaker and pleia2 I wouldn't mind your feedback on ^^ as users19:59
dakercjohnston, nice20:00
svwilliamsits a smaller image of the IRC image from the team page ... just so everyone knows what the image represents in other places on loco-team-portal20:01
mainerrorcjohnston: Looks nice but I'm not sure if that is the right choice.20:01
pleia2cjohnston: as long as it has mouseover text with a little description it's fine to how my brain works20:01
mainerrorHowever I don't have a better idea so yea.20:03
mainerrorhttp://design.canonical.com/brand/Pictograms/PNG_files/HEX/UBUNTU_ORANGE_HEX/articles_orange_hex.png20:03
mainerrorThis might be misleading.20:03
mainerrorActually it is misleading.20:03
svwilliamsoh pretty ... yeah I was attempting to stay with an icon that already said IRC20:09
svwilliamsbut in the portal20:09
svwilliamsits links to IRC channel not log so ...20:09
svwilliamscjohnston, what do you think of mainerror 's image?20:10
cjohnstonnot sure..20:10
cjohnstonid like to see more feedback20:10
mmiicccjohnston: I'm just an end user. ;) I'd never guess it's about IRC. Placement next to the date makes me think it has something to do with the date (maybe booking place at this event?)20:16
cjohnstonmmiicc: its a meeting page, not an event page, so if you look at it in context does it make more sense?20:17
imnicholI don't suppose there's an icon that represents historical data or something?20:19
AlanBellcjohnston: I like the icon you suggested20:21
mmiicccjohnston: well, maybe a little more. As someone said, if there'll be a hint on hover, it'll work20:21
cjohnstonimnichol: historical data? i dont understand20:21
mainerrorcjohnston: He means logs.20:35
mainerrorIt would be awesome to have such an icon but I can't think of anything that could represent that, at least of nothing simple.20:35
