January 9, 2006: Information Interaction in Context

http://www.findability.org/archives/000084.php

Judging by the CFP and the Programme Committee, the First Symposium on
Information Interaction in Context looks very promising:

"There is a growing realisation that relevant information will be accessible
increasingly across media and genres, across languages and across
modalities. The retrieval of such information will depend on time, place,
history of interaction, task in hand, and a range of other factors that are
not given explicitly but are implicit in the interaction and ambient
environment, namely the context."

Looks like the field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) will soon be
replaced by Human Information Interaction (HII), or at least that's what
I'll be arguing in Montreal in April at CHI 2006.
