I'm elated to invite you to two seminars and a full-day conference on enterprise search, findability and information architecture, taking place next month in the wonderful cities of Copenhagen and London.

In cooperation with our Denmark-based partner J. Boye, I'll be teaching a full-day seminar on Information Architecture for Findability and Web Publishing on September 11. This seminar is cumulative learnings from my time as a taxonomist and implementer of many a WCMS, as well as my more recent few years as an analyst (speaking with hundreds of users of CM, DAM and search systems), about what kinds of information structures help, or hinder, the implementation of specific technologies. If you're an information architect, web content manager, portal manager or search project manager, this class is geared towards the kinds of challenges you face.

In London a few days later, together with Claudia Urschbach, Senior Information Architect with the BBC, I'm chairing a full-day event on enterprise search. The speaker lineup includes Adriaan Bloem, Martin White, Janus Boye, James Robertson and others, and we'll spend the day discussing the current thinking on optimizing search within the enterprise. Our goal is both practical and tactical: we'll discuss search UI best practices, the vendor landscape, managing search projects, audio/video search, what you need to know about search in SharePoint 2007, and of course, we'll do some future-gazing.

Finally, Adriaan Bloem and I will teach a half-day intensive course on enterprise search in London on September 16th. If you're looking for a deep dive into today's search technology, join Adriaan and I for a combined presentation of our recent research. We hope to see you there!
