Topic:    A Next-Generation Consumer Photo Application
          Challenges in Creating a Simple Yet Powerful User Experience

Speaker:  Michael Slater
          Adobe Systems

About the talk:

Adobe has developed Photoshop Album[2], a next-generation photo
application that enables consumers to organize, fix, share, and
preserve their digital photos. Previous solutions have been too
complex for many consumers to accept, and a radical change in
approach was needed to both simplify the user's experience and
deliver more capability. This talk will describe the new
paradigms used in this program and explore several of the
challenging design issues, especially with regard to achieving
consumer ease-of-use.

About the speaker:

Michael Slater is a senior manager in Adobe's Digital Imaging and
Video business unit, responsible for technology strategy. He was
formerly the chairman and cofounder of PhotoTablet, later renamed
Fotiva, which developed a photo management application before
being acquired by Adobe in December, 2001. Prior to founding
PhotoTablet, he was the founder and editorial director of the
Microprocessor Report newsletter, and organizer of the
Microprocessor Forum conference.
