Monday, April 19, 2004, 12:00pm to 2:00pm

**THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC**
Invite your friends.

DCWW is pleased to present a special lunchtime edition of “Coffee & Content” (ok, it’s really lunch) hosted by our own Merry Bruns. In case you missed the last C&C on Web usability, she’s agreed to a rerun for us. Please join us for a freewheeling roundtable discussion.

To make SURE your site’s content is usable, you have to do more than say “Jakob told me so!” Managers want evidence-based proof that usability testing is worth it before giving the go-ahead.

Come prepared to talk one-on-one with Sanjay Koyani and Janice Nall (invited), usability experts who’ve conducted empirical research on what makes a site’s content usable, easy to read and navigate. (In fact, they’ve written to book on it!) Janice and Sanjay are two of the movers and shakers behind usability.gov

Merry Bruns is an online content strategist, editor and web writing trainer. She teaches web writing and editing at the National Press Club and provides customized in-house training to a wide variety of organizations worldwide.
