The Intersection of Marketing and User Experience

The Intersection of Marketing and User Experience

By Steve Mann on August 31, 2011

The pace of change in the online world is causing organizations to struggle to keep up with their online interactions with their customers. More and more of these interactions happen nowadays via the Interweb.  While these digital interfaces serve consumers everywhere, the user experience these consumers have shapes how they view the brands in their lives.  [...]

IBM Systems and Technology Group: Redesigning for Developers

IBM Systems and Technology Group: Redesigning for Developers

By James Governor on November 18, 2010

I just spent a couple of days with IBM in Rye Brook, NY, and I have to admit, I came away impressed. I should also mention that I landed quite a nice contract while I was there, so take that into account when reading this piece. Why does IBM STG want to work with RedMonk, [...]

What the next iPad will look like

What the next iPad will look like

By Ismael Ghalimi on October 23, 2010

I have been playing with my new MacBook Air 11” for a few hours now. I love every part of it, and there is not much I would like to change. Maybe shrinking the screen’s bezel and make it a 12” laptop without changing its outer dimensions. Or adding…

Is Gap’s New Logo a Crowdsourcing Black Ops?

Is Gap’s New Logo a Crowdsourcing Black Ops?

By Jeff Nolan on October 10, 2010

Here’s an interesting argument… that Gap hoodwinked everyone into signing on to crowdsource a new logo by using their decidedly crappy “new” logo as bait: That’s right. One of the most prominent popular fashion brands is crowdsourcing its new brand logo. So the favorite last-ditch tactic of brands and causes lacking money or new ideas [...]

The iPad and the Enterprise

The iPad and the Enterprise

By Thomas Otter on September 10, 2010

(photo cc attrib. pntphoto thanks!) I have seen several keynotes from software executives lately. I recollect that all of them had iPads in them.  Seasoned software executives have been getting positively giddy about the iPad. It has given Steve Jobs a sales force that he didn’t know he had. It seems without really planning for [...]

Crowdsourcing Our New Logo Design.  Time to Vote.

Crowdsourcing Our New Logo Design. Time to Vote.

By Zoli Erdos on September 1, 2010

We’re putting our money where our (digital) mouth is:  having talked so much about crowdsourcing, we took 99designs for a test drive, hoping to see a new CloudAve logo emerge. I was not too impressed with the initial submissions, but just as I suspected, 99design works pretty much like eBay does: the better contestants ignore [...]

On innovation

On innovation

By Thomas Otter on August 29, 2010

(image of Scott Berkun presenting via Chasingfun cc attribution. Thanks!) In this interview on the O’Reilly blog Scott Berkun nails it. How do you define “innovation”? Scott Berkun: I strongly recommend people use this word as little as possible. It’s mostly a distraction. Many great ideas and breakthroughs were achieved without people worrying if they [...]

Crappy UI Anecdotes

Crappy UI Anecdotes

By Bob Warfield on August 5, 2010

Sorry, but I have been extracting these stones from my user experience shoe for some time. I would grumble and finally move on, but as the same stones kept making their way back into my shoes, I finally decided to start keeping notes. This post is the result. It probably won’t be my last, but [...]

Love Respect

Love Respect

By Ismael Ghalimi on July 1, 2010

New iPhone released It is a massive success Yet people complain For all its presumed flaws, the new iPhone is an absolutely amazing experiment in industrial design and ecosystem reshaping. It’s bold, slick, gorgeous. It makes me wonder what the world would be like if all surrounding objects had been designed with the same level [...]
