I realize that my posting here has been sporadic at best. I've been seemingly, or effectively, gone from the site for ages. That's not because I don't love you. It's also not because I don't love spewing opinions, and occasional insights, on user experience and information architecture. It's mostly because I've been busy.
Busy learning lots of lessons. And busy forming lots of new opinions. And maybe even busy gaining some new insights into the product development process.
But now, I'm back. And I'll be sharing all of those lessons, opinions and insights with you over the coming months. Maybe my latest batch of experiences will save some of you a lot of pain.
Because I'm just that selfless, and that's exactly how much I love you--I'll take all of that pain for you, and come back and tell you how to avoid it for yourselves. You can thank me later. |

We're all very aware of my tendency for using, um, colorful analogies and my lack of shyness in littering the landscape around me with f-bombs. In the spirit of that, I offer you the first in what should be (at the very least) an interesting set of presentations showcasing my opinions on what's wrong with how most people address (or don't address) user experience.

So, someone finally rang the bell on that whole "illegal to incentivize voting" thing. Awesome. Stay tuned for thoughts on why you shouldn't leave all of your thinking to ad agencies--or Why You're Smarter Than You Think You Are.
In the meantime, you should go hit up Starbucks, Ben & Jerry's, Krispy Kreme, and whomever else was offering up freebies in your 'hood and demand your free shit. Srsly.

I've been long absent from here, I know. That's changing soon enough. Promise. :-)

I'm always on the lookout for easier ways to include rich interaction mechanisms and effects in my prototypes. For the past year or so, that meant wrestling with various libraries like MooTools, Prototype, Scriptaculous, and (horror of horrors) Dojo. But now, there's something easier.

"So now the Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours. The Lord has decreed disaster for you." - 1 Kings 22:23 (NIV)
Software development will not bring you salvation. So, don't treat your development methodology like a religion. Read more in False Prophets and Imposter Messiahs |
