Hat tip to VizThink
I just posted a short description of “The UXD Stack” over on 404uxd.com.
Many people in User Experience Design use different kinds of “briefs” when they get started on a project. Most of our work at EMCC UXD is application development, but we also develop demonstrations, prototypes, proof of cocept models, and even business presentations both internally and for our clients.
Regardless what we’re producing as the final deliverable, there’s a single formula for the up-front brief that we use to get a quick and successful start to the project. We think “The UXD Stack” is the simplest yet most effective perspective for all kinds of communication projects.
Read the details and download a single-page PDF description at 404UXD.com.
I know I haven’t been posting much here. But, I have been fairly active recently elsewhere on the net.
I’ve mentioned 404UXD already, so look there for UXD-related posts. But just a few days ago I started Marathon by 40 (http://marathonby40.com). I’m starting this new blog a month before I turn 38 years old. I have a personal goal to run a marathon by the time I’m 40. Considering I couldn’t run a mile without walking about a year ago, this is going to be a considerable challenge.
I’ll be blogging there to keep track of my progress and to allow my friends an easy way to keep me accountable and encourage me to stay on track.
Are you on a running program right now yourself? Stop by and let’s encourage one another!
So, I’m in the middle of another drought here on Mark-Up. But, I have been a little more active on our team blog at 404UXD.com. We adopted a tumbler format over there for more frequent, more pithy posts. So, if you haven’t yet already, please check us out.
