(cross posted) If any of you fancy coming to a film night on tuesday (9th June) in Brighton (UK), you are most welcome. We've dug up an old copy of "The Social...
(Apologies for multiple postings in various groups you may be reading. We want to get this notice out widely!) On June 26, we're holding an unconference about...
Hi, I am a developer working in an agile team for more than two years. There are five developers, one usability engineer, and one on-site customer in our team....
Russell, I am going to question in advance any possible validity to your poll results. First, any poll that requires you to login to yet another service (like...
Yeah, I went to it and bailed because I had to sign-in to participate. Also, the ____Designer titles won't let me input a prefix. So, what does that mean? That...
Very very valid point. I threw this up quickly using Google's new Web Elements (initially thought it suppoorted anonymous answers) and hoped that enough...
Due to popular demand for eliminating the required login to take the survey, the poll has been reposted using SurveyGizmo (without require a login). I ...
A basic pass / fail test was developed at Nokia to understand if the many teams were implementing Scrum correctly. You can take this test by clicking on the...
I've written a post for my company's external design blog, that might be of interest to this list. "...my co-workers and I spent several hours considering the...
There is more to it --- specifically, there's a particular horror story or two for each item on the list, which will be talked about in future blog posts by...
I think this is great! Ironically, we are just kicking off our own effort to document our design guidelines to frame how we work both as a team and with other...
... I think that's true of all the items on your list though: Validated Data over Expert Opinion Quality of Data over Ease of Data Collection Complete...
John, thanks for this. I am raptly interested in your real-world experience; as you say, I've heard a lot from people who know what "well-researched" and who...
Hi, I am aware of the wide spectrum of proposals, techniques, approaches for improving agile usability, however, i believe that most of the assessements were...
... Could you say more about your goal in asking those questions? I have seen a lot of teams, and I don't think I've ever seen one where a team has been helped...
Jared introduced into this thread the simplification: "Well-researched user experiences over group-think-produced feature requirements." Later the list was...
... I took Jared's dichotomy list as "strive for A instead of B." While quality data may not always be difficult, the focus should be on obtaining quality data...
... This clearly shows you have a misconception of what user experience research is. Unfortunately, there's a lot of bad research going on in the UX field by...
Larry, I'm sorry that you didn't read the original article that started this discussion. It would have saved you some time. The list of "dichotomies" came...
... And, for the record, I wasn't stating that I agreed with this statement. I was just checking to see if I understood what John had originally tried to say...
... (although it is over-rated and even over-used, but I would never say that because anyone who does is clearly deranged or evil or both) < ... research is. <...
... Dina, The effectiveness of any given method for any project is largely driven by the organization's design literacy. And then it's also largely driven by...

Thanks and good for you Jared. --Larry Constantine, IDSA, ACM Fellow Director, Lab:USE Laboratory for Usage-centered Software Engineering (www.labuse.org) ...
... It seems to me very unlikely that Larry Constantine is under a misconception about what user experience research is. I'm submitting a defect report on you...
