Hi all,
The next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is on Wednesday 18 April
2007.
Matthew Hodgson will speak on Semantic Analysis in IA.
Content audits are hard. It's probably because English is a
messy
language - people write with different styles and call
things by
different names. It means that analysis, categorisation and
building
corporate taxonomies are very time consuming, even if its
just for the
local intranet.
Matthew will talk about his recent experience in the
Department of
Health and Ageing, and introduce the concept of semantic
analysis as a
method of assisting information classification.
We follow a meet'n'greet/presentation/chat format, with the
emphasis
on information exchange at practitioner level. This is a
great
opportunity to talk with other IAs in Canberra, have a few
drinks, and
chat about work.
Time: 17:30-19:00
Day/Date: Wednesday 18 April 2007
Venue: SMS Management & Technology
Ground Floor, 8 Brindabella Circuit
CANBERRA AIRPORT ACT
Please RSVP by COB Monday 16 April 2007 for catering
purposes.
Parking: please note that Brindabella Park has different
parking
arrangements than those found in many parts of Canberra -
there is
free parking for the first hour adjacent to the entrance of
8
Brindabella Circuit. After that you have to move your car or
pay for
parking (and this applies past the end of the meeting).
PS: there is a contact list for the Canberra IA Cocktail
Hours: you

Best regards, Andrew Boyd
