NordiCHI 2012 invites workshop proposals addressing basic research, applied research, new methodologies, emerging application areas, design innovations, and HCI education. The goal of the workshops is to generate ideas that might give the NordiCHI community new ways of thinking about well traveled themes and topics or that might suggest new promising directions for future work.

Re: [Air-L] How to archive websites?

To archive websites, you can try Httrack (free), or paid for software such as Offline Explorer or Teleport pro / ultra. Easy to find on the Web, and check them out for your specific needs. Another option is Zotero for advanced screencapturing and annotation.
