Welcome to CHI 99 and to the SIGCHI community! The CHI conference provides a forum for people to meet, both formally and informally, to share experiences, and to learn. We trust that you will find here the intellectually exciting and personally rewarding forum that brings many people back to this conference year after yearyThe CHI conference is sponsored by ACM's Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI). SIGCHI is comprised of an international group of researcher, practitioners, educators, students, and others who share an interest in one or more of the many facets of human-computer interaction. SIGCHI is committed to the parallel activities of advancing the field of human-computerinteractiona and exchanging information within the SIGCHI community. This conference also provides an opportunity for you to learn more about SIGCHI activities and to explore taking an active role in those activites. You can do this by stopping by the SIGCHI booth, attending the SIGCHI BusinessMeeting, or talking with any of the Executive Committee members.While the CHI conference is the largest and most visible activity of SIGCHI, we also support conferences on computer-supported collaborative work (CSCW), virtual reality software and technology (VRST), user interface software and technology (UIST), design of interactive systems (DIS) and intelligent user interfaces (IUI) and creativity & cognition (C&C).SIGCHI also distributes the quartely SIGCHI Bulletin to memebers, as well as other who are interested in human-computer interaction. In addition, SIGCHI supports the Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction (TOCHI), and Interactions, a magazine focused on practitioners.The SIGCHI Development Fund supports activites that are proposed by SIGCHI members. If you have ideas for advancing our field and communicating those advances to SIGCHI members we encourage you to review the Call for Proposals, which appears on the SIGCHI web site and frequently in the SIGCHI Bulletin.
