BEAUTY IS IN THE DETAILS:
CREATING A NICER EXPERIENCE
    ONLINE AND OFFLINE
     Anjali Ramachandran
"You are, in fact, a
               mashup of what you
               choose to let into your
               life. You are the sum of
               your influences. The
               German writer Goethe
               said, “We are shaped
               and fashioned by what
               we love.”"

KEEP IT SIMPLE
"In the mobile context, you need
to explain what you do in 30
seconds or less because people
move on to the next shiny object.

It's the one context in which
you've got lots and lots of other
stuff going on. You're not sitting
in front of a computer; you're at
a bus stop or in a meeting."

- Kevin Systrom
CEO of Instagram

“With multitouch gestural interaction, commands
may be easier to learn and remember if they are
designed to reflect the manipulations of real world
physical objects, since this is an existing skill that
people already possess.”

“We can immediately see uses at concerts and
sporting events. But we also like the suggested uses
from one iTunes reviewer, who says this "is going to
be great at meetings, but I can see it being used
while driving."

Suddenly, the iPad is no longer merely digital. It's
analog, too.”

Rick Mathieson
Author and media commentator

“Projects often fail not because the idea is bad, but
because the value their service will provide is not
easily understood.

...If the problem is not obvious to the user, in terms
they understand, the solution won’t matter.
Focusing on the problem keeps a project from
drifting into fantasy requirements: solutions looking
for a problem.”

Stephen Turbek
User Experience Lead at a financial services firm in New York

“....it's all about learning as quickly as possible and
validating our designs and assumptions. Talking to
users and observing them use our site helps us
understand the why behind the metrics.”

Human Factors
   (optimizing the relationship between technology and humans)




          Human Factors Engineering
(applying what we know about human capabilities and limitations to
               product, process and systems design)
KISS : simple is best
                              -
  Bridge the gap between the physical and digital : make it
                          intuitive
                              -
       See your product the way users do : cut the flab
                              -
Focus on those who matter most : they’re the ones who count
                              -
             Optimize relationships : be efficient

  • 6. "In the mobile context, you need to explain what you do in 30 seconds or less because people move on to the next shiny object. It's the one context in which you've got lots and lots of other stuff going on. You're not sitting in front of a computer; you're at a bus stop or in a meeting." - Kevin Systrom CEO of Instagram

Focusing on the problem keeps a project from drifting into fantasy requirements: solutions looking for a problem.” Stephen Turbek User Experience Lead at a financial services firm in New York
