A day after World Usability Day (Nov 13), I am heading out to the Rockies for CanUX 2008, an annual event that has become a staple on my conference circuit. Organized by the guys at nForm (Jess McMullin, Gene Smith and Co.), the conference has great workshops and well-respected speakers from the UX world.
This year, the conference is highlighted by Dave Gray (XPATH), Brandon Schauer (Adaptive Path), Luke Wrobleski (Yahoo!, LukeW Designs) and Dennis Wixon (Microsoft Surface). And being in Banff, this will probably also be my first snowboarding outing of the year. Can't wait.

Banff, AB, served as the backdrop of my first CanUX (short for Canadian User Experience) conference and the 2007 version showed that it belongs at the forefront of the Canadian UX landscape. While the workshops and presentations alike provided content that was both educational and entertaining, my top 4 in terms of relevance ended up as follows:
1. Web Accessibility (Derek Featherstone)
2. Tagging (Gene Smith)
3. The Business of Usability (Jess McMullin)
4. The Fuzzy Tail (Dave Armano).
