… for me, and I just couldn’t quite get the time to write up the answer to this week’s Challenge.

On the other hand, it’s been a very fun week. I was at a small conference (the Human Computer Interaction Consortium) near Watsonville, CA. (You could look it up!) But I had to suffer with a conference venue that looked largely like this:

I know, it’s a tough life… but someone has to do the research! And, in truth, these small conferences are the best possible venue for professional communication.

But between attending the conference (not on the beach, but in ordinary-looking conference rooms), holding down my “regular” job, and even more traveling for family reasons, there just wasn’t the time.

I’ve been thinking about SRS and exploring how to best answer the Challenge… and early next week I’ll do a couple of posts on this large and interesting question of “how do we research the level of knowledge of different people” on a given topic! This is not one of the easier SRS Challenges we’ve had.

Keep searching… and I’ll be back early next week with my answers and reflections on what makes this kind of question so tricky.

Search on!
