Do you organize wiki events? Would you like to have a convenient tool that provides metrics about the impact of your events? Then you are a potential user of Event Metrics [1], a new tool under development. I’m writing now to find event organizes who can help us test the usability of this new metrics program, to make sure people such as yourself can understand and easily use its functions.

The test will involve a one-hour videoconference session with a design researchers, who will lead you through a series of tasks on the program and talk to you about how well the tool's user interface works for you and how it could be improved. Sessions will take place the second and third weeks of January.

If you’d like to help out, please email Daisy Chen, dchen[at]wikimedia.org, and let her know:

* The email address where you prefer to be reached. * Your time zone * General times when you prefer to meet (evenings, mornings, etc.)

Daisy will follow up to schedule a time. Thanks for helping to make Event Metrics a tool that event organizers will find empowering!
