]]> Comment on Self Review: Pioneering a User Experience Process by v.highly http://www.uinotebook.com/2007/07/02/self-review-pioneering-a-user-experience-process/#comment-22 v.highly Fri, 06 Jul 2007 10:05:09 +0000 http://www.uinotebook.com/2007/07/02/self-review-pioneering-a-user-experience-process/#comment-22 Good post. I also read the original article. Sounds very familiar to me. I am in a situation to improve our main product's usability and it is good to reflect what I have achieved so far and what remains to be done. Last four years I have been advocating usability practises in our company and as a result the product is much better than before. No one here needs to be convinced about usability anymore. But still a lot remains to be done. For example, one thing is that it's sometimes easy to design a new feature and ensure it's easy to use. But it is a challenge to make sure that the whole 'big picture' also remains solid and easy to use. Adding new features can be harmful to the usability of the whole. Good post. I also read the original article.

It was just one of the things pointed out as a potential segregation factor between the two groups of teens. You really should read the full article because danah makes some of the same observations that you do and more. Good questions, though. Definitely something to think about.
