  1. Tummelvision: Do You Speak-a My Language with Elizabeth Churchill

    There was a little Buzz, a little iPad and a lot of accents swirling around the show this week. It was our first ”international parity” edition serendipitously coinciding with the Olympics; we had two brits [Kevin and Elizabeth], a Canadian [Heather] and an American [Deb]. Ironically, we did not even touch on the Games themselves but rather focused on the true international language of “connecting the dots” and the human behavior and interfaces that help folks connect.

  2. Place Matters

    In a prior job, Yahoo researcher Elizabeth Churchill wanted to build relationships between colleagues in the Bay area and in Tokyo. In this talk at eTech 2008, Elizabeth discusses a project undertaken to accomplish this. The implementation was a large public touchscreen display where employees from both locations could post content of their choice to share with colleagues. The project allowed colleagues to window shop into an online world at a public display where people in the physical space could interact with the digital content and with each other, strengthening weak ties and creating ice breakers.

    Elizabeth shares some of the challenges faced during the project and poses questions about the possible trajectories of uptake and success of such installations in the marketplace.
