I have joined the ACM IUI 2017 (The 22th International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces) program committee. The program committee of the IUI conference is slightly different organized in comparison to other ACM conferences. Usually, the members of a program committee will assign each submission a number of external reviewers and write a meta-review. At IUI […]

Review submitted to OzCHI 2016
Submitted a review to the OzCHI 2016 conference with the formal name “The Annual Meeting of the Australian Special Interest Group for Computer Human Interaction.” Here at our group, The Research Centre for Socio+Interactive Design at Aalborg University, we have for several years participated in and supported this event. This is the first time I am reviewing for […]
Currently, I’m spending a part of my summer writing a small-scale case study about the impact of usability work. Back in 2014, I was part of a team arranging a redesign workshop [1] for a development team at the company TC Electronic, now known as Music Group Innovation. They wanted to evaluate and improve an application […]
Locked out of Windows XP

Joining the Roskilde Festival Crew yet again this year.
A few days ago I celebrated my birthday. During the day, I received several birthday wishes through different media. This included several e-mails from both friends and different companies. Getting greetings is something I appreciate, but what is the point of getting auto generated greetings? This comes down to what the meaning of sending a […]
At my organization, Aalborg University, it is a requirement to change the campus account password once every 90 days, a security imitative implemented last year. This is a widespread security policy used in many organizations, but also a policy whose significance has been questioned for more than a decade. I have very mixed feelings about this […]
Submitted reviews for two papers submitted to NordiCHI 2016 (formally known as the 9th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction.) I have now been reviewing papers for several years and have (finally) found somewhat of a review routine. Both papers are interesting and concerned with timely and relevant topics. Despite that the papers are not exactly […]
Spam is a well-known problem for all Internet users, especially technical administrators of Internet services. I own several domain names used for different purposes. Most of my domains are not supposed to receive e-mails. However, spammers don’t care and will still send spam mails to these domains. Even without Mail eXchange (MX) records a domain […]
