User Experience Accountability

Scott Hirsch at Adapt­ive Path has writ­ten an inter­est­ing art­icle on User Exper­i­ence Account­ab­il­ity.

As design­ers we’re all too aware that we are under scru­tiny on how a pro­ject runs. These met­rics gen­er­ally define a pro­jects suc­cess but Scott points out that they are not met­rics by which we can judge User Exper­i­ence and there­fore an accur­ate ROI indication.

    Hi Mark

    Did my usual brows­ing, hit­ting book­marked links after ‘that game’ tonight that prom­ised so much and delivered so little and was pleas­antly sur­prised to come across the new all improved snooch site. 

    So Mr Boulton has finally opted for a truely all encom­passing access­ible site wahooo …

    “This Page Is Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional!” 

    Ima­ginet have gone whole hog down this road and soon I will have some sites to show you which like snooch have gone down the same W3C path. The reason? To gen­er­ate more money of course!

    Any­way keep on updat­ing th site as your usual folowers will be here in their droves. Oh and before I go are you com­ing Fri­day 28 at Terra Nova for 8pm? … c’mon you know it makes sense! 

    Kind regards and a pat on the back

    Graham
