@clairesignalbizhub-com Shall we have a chat about how to facilitate this? I just thought that as this is your platform, I didn’t want to do it under the radar. However, new folks are going to find it hard to get to know existing peeps if we don’t reach out.

Sorry to disappoint, but I have to cancel the UX/UI Circle today at 2pm. I seem to have come down with something. Feels like a chest infection, but I could be being dramatic.

We’ll pick up next week with the 4th UX Honeycomb cell, Findability.
