There are a lot of different tools for prototyping. Some, like Fireworks are targeted at designers. Some, like iRise and Axure, only work on Windows. Ruby on...
I'm a bit new to Agile but don't really see the problem with this vision thing. I use the Cooper Goal-Directed Design Method. We interview users to learn their...
Our outputs for our persona/segmentation work are usually in A1 poster format. In the age of hot-desking where developers have no place to position anything...
Most of the teams I have worked with in the past have had various documents hanging around their Scrum/sprint board. Primary team goal statements, team values,...
... One team I coached dealt with this by having a number of portable or mobile whiteboards. Wherever the team went, so did the team environment. William...
We are organizing an Agile Project Leadership Network (APLN) chapter for the Houston area with the purpose of promoting the growth of agile practices in...
Our persona posters are in conference rooms, the lunch room cupboards, on the way to the bathroom, the executive conference room, the cube walls that create...
[ Apologies to those who receive more than one copy of this. ] Greetings, You're invited to attend a party to honor the launch of the second edition of the...
Curious to hear what people think about this. How does this relate to Agile? One challenge many designers see in agile is that there is no time for this kind...
... Is that typical to agile projects? Or just projects? Kaheny believes that Apple is exceptional in that almost nobody pursues this level of refinement, no...
Is what typical to agile? Big, upfront exploratory design processes? Certainly not. Building one feature at a time w/o much thought to how it will fit into the...
... You'll not find that recommended in the literature, however. I'm not sure how many organizations do it. None of the ones I've ever dealt with had that...
So, if months, even years were spent before development on research and design, a spec was generated & handed off to developers, that would be agile? Jeff On...
I thought that you just did. " Agile doesn't care what thinking you do before you start developing, nor does it care who does the thinking. You can have twelve...

Hi, Let me put words into Ron's mouth for a moment, because he tends to by a little cryptic - I think he's saying that he meant what he said about agile not...
My point is that an underinvestment in design isn't typical to agile projects. It is typical to all software projects. Putting suits in charge when you should...
... Why would this be an either-or choice? Good teams I see use both. Or rather, they use a spectrum, in increasing order of cost. Talk is cheap, especially...
Excellent. Thank you for clarifying. I believe agile holds a lot of potential for the design community, and I'm going to investigate what PARC was up to, I'm...
Sure - completely agree. The benefit drops as the code-development tools/methods get faster/cheaper. And the details of application for any particular effort...
... I meant that Agile Software Development is about software development. It begins when the project begins, with software pretty much that day. If someone...
I think that this distinction -- between software development and software design -- needs to go away. The fact is that designers are part of any effective...
... So I guess this is a similar resolution to another recent discussion on this list. I can understand the distinction you want to make, but I don't think...
I agree that this is a really useful technique for helping your personas stay relevant and alive. The more you help people identify behavior patterns in the...
Hello, Robert. On Tuesday, June 10, 2008, at 8:03:31 AM, you ... With all due respect, I'm not at all sure that you do understand, not entirely because we...
