Bill Buxton’s Bad Ass CHI 2008 Keynote
“In 1997 you yelled out that you would never come to CHI again because they just didn’t get it. What changed your mind to come back? Ultimately I can’t figure out a better community to work on these problems. It surprised people that I went to IBM, and that I came back here I guess. I had some time to think. I’m glad I came back. I was younger and wilder then and not so calm and cool and collected. I also stopped blaming you and CHI for not getting what I need. Instead, it’s my fault. I can say what can I do to get fulfilled.” (Bolt|Peters User Experience)
