MISC Talk: Mobile phones augment social interaction
Using Mobile Phones to Augment Face-to-Face Social Interaction
Jaime Teevan, Sr. Researcher at Microsoft, will present what Microsoft has learned through the deployment of several mobile phone applications intended to make people happy rather than annoyed when someone they're with pulls out a phone. She will look at ways to embrace technology, instead of fighting it - “No phones at the dinner table!” Attendees are encouraged to bring their phones and try one of these applications during the talk.
