Women in IA - Indy Young

"In this interview, we talk about a great IA and UX method of doing this very efficiently. It was developed by Indi Young (...). After attending her seminar during the PreCon of the IA Summit 2007, where visitors learned how to create a Mental Model (during the teamwork that needs to take place between IAs and their clients), I had the chance to interview her. One of the things I really like about her is her great ability to describe complex things in an understandable way, using metaphors such as 'the hallway test' to help communicate methods like the Mental Model to the business world."

Dan Saffer Interview

"Dan Saffer, senior interaction designer at Adaptive Path, has a new book coming out called Designing for Interaction. We met up at the AP offices when I was in town last and had a great chat about what makes for great interaction design, how you allow for (encourage?) hackability, and much more. The book was an excellent introduction for me (the non-designer software dabbler) into the current thinking about user experience and interaction." (weblogswork)

Designing the Next Generation of Web Apps

"I had a great time moderating a panel at SXSW this year. The subject was web applications -- specifically the changes we've seen recently in the new technologies, design directions, and economic factors of building stuff online. So I asked some really smart people to join me to discuss what's been happening and what they've been thinking about. Thanks again to George Oates from Flickr, Mena Trott from SixApart, Eric Rodenbeck from Stamen Design, and Evan Williams from Odeo. Here are the notes I prepared before the panel. We didn't get through it all; we could have kept going all afternoon." (Jeffrey Veen)

Keith Instone of UXnet

"Live from Internet User Experience 2006, Tim & Tom interview friend and fellow usability professional Keith Instone about his work with User Experience Network. What is UXnet, and what do they want from us? How about this: 'UXnet was formed to help make connections between the people and organizations that represent User Experience disciplines, and to encourage interchange and cooperation.' Sounds good to us. In a field so widely interdisciplinary, we could use a big tent like UXnet to convene under. Attend the tale of UXnet!" (Design Critique)
