"Vidhya, what's your #UX habit?", someone asked this morning. I draw. 🙂 I meet people, sense what's going on and draw rough. I feel it makes capturing ideas, communicating and #collaborating more fun! ❤️ #DesignThinking #Empathy #ProblemSolving #UXDesign #Designing

Being able to empathize with users, gain insights into what they need, what they want, how they behave, feel, and think, and why they demonstrate such behaviors, feelings, and thoughts when interacting with products in a real-world setting has become key to guiding innovation efforts. #UX #userexperience #innovation #google #coursera

Because this keeps coming up... I'm not sure what they mean by "there is no such thing as UX / UI"...but UX exists and UI does too. UI is part of a UX and you can be skilled in creating amazing UX while relying on others to create an amazing UI for you, and you can create an amazing UI for something that overall has a terrible UX. So if someone tells me they do both I don't assume they are full of it...I want to see examples where they have created things that are useful, usable, and beautiful. If they can only handle the first 2 they are likely good at UX but need UI help. If they are only good at the last one then they aren't great at UX but might be helpful in creating the UI for a well defined UX. I've explained before that I can improve the UX of a system by simply putting the experience in the cloud vs. an on prem server. No UI changes...but a better experience because people around the world will have a more responsive system that helps them finish their task faster. I could also improve a UX by improving the UI by using colors and fonts that more accessible.

Two end of day mini-rants: 1) Game knows game. 2) Anchoring bias is a terrible beast. Not only do folks need to stop saying "UX/UI," but such folks definitely don't have the UX cred to demonize those who call out its usage. For the record, the usage of "UX/UI" didn't begin until about 2012 and has been an underlying cause of poor UX maturity, devaluing of the discipline, and subjects those who hear it to the consequences of embracing said misinformation. #ux #realuxtalk Darren Hood, MSUXD
