Right now I’m working on a project that has provided me another opportunity to work with a Usability Engineer. He’s pretty damn good at and it’s a lot of fun watching him work. Although his documentation makes mine look like crap in comparison. Jerk.
Anyway, I forget where I got the reference, but I just watch this documentary called Objectified. Three things I’d like to say about it. First, the documentary itself is well worth watching. It is an hour or so long, covers a lot and provides a bounty in food for thought. Second, Amazon’s Instant Video rocks. If you happen to subscribe to prime you can watch the movie for free right now. So subscribe to prime. Finally, it works great on the XOOM! Only complaint about the XOOM is that the speakers could be a lot better. Easily solved with a pair of headphones.
Anyway, if you’re a software developer and have to create UI’s give Objectified a watch.
The next thing I want is more material on Personas and Scenarios.
