ANNOUNCING Workshops -- NordiCHI 2006
The Fourth Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction
Oslo, Norway, 14-18 October, 2006
http://nordichi.net.dynamicweb.dk/Invitation.aspx

We are pleased to announce that a total of nine workshop proposals have
been accepted for NordiCHI 2006. The workshops now accept
applications/submissions. Please consult the page for each workshop
concerning deadline and submission details (mid to late July to early
August).

The workshops take place on Saturday and Sunday before the main
conference. Participation in one or more workshops is an excellent way
of getting updated on state-of-the-art in the field, getting feedback on
your research, and meeting people with similar interests.

The workshop submissions are handled directly by the workshop
organizers, and should NOT be sent through the NordiCHI 2006 submission
system. See each workshop's web page for submission details.
