I came across the list below some time ago. It’s from a Gartner presentation by Ray Valdes on the business value of user experience.
Ironically, the slide deck was in desperate need of graphic design love.
Anyway, the list chronicles an apparent evolution of design approaches over the last decade or so. Here goes:
Designer-driven: small fonts, garish [...]
Tammy’s talk starts at 3:15. The player controls are awful, but the talk is excellent.
Having recently received my TypeKit invite, I went ahead and purchased the USD 25 Personal plan and font-ified my blog. TypeKit takes a very interesting approach to web fonts: you add a bit of JavaScript to your <head> tag and then manage which fonts you want to use where in the TypeKit editor.
Great fonts in [...]
Shaun Inman created Mint years before we had GetSatisfaction. He likely got tired of answering the same questions over and over again, and added a bit of instruction to his home-grown forum (below).
Forums don’t scale well
Frankly, if you use a plain-vanilla forum for customer support, you’re sabotaging yourself. When a forum has thousands of threads [...]
I come across a lot of interesting links. So many, in fact, that I need to spend my attention wisely. I asked around on Twitter, where Dave Malouf suggested using Instapaper and Bjørn Wang pointed out that your Twitterstream isn’t the only place we need to parse links.

You pop open the paper pyramid and place the infuser in the tea cup, thread the lid down over the infuser’s built-in handle.
When your tea is ready, you gently [...]
Open publication – Free publishing – More visual culture
One of my favorite magazines, Eye, is using Issuu to promote itself online.
It’s ingenious: they upload a magazine to Issuu and we consume it online. No stripped-down, boring and bare website necessary.
The trouble is, my bookcases are already sagging from the weight of Monocle, Metropolis, Graphis and [...]
An amazing array of iPhone apps are not available outside the US. Sometimes the developer just adds the UK, too. Other times, it feels like we’re being singled out here in Norway.
The annoying fact of the matter is that there is no “publish to all stores” in iTunes’ developer view. That’s right, the developer has [...]
One of the great things about Twitter is the daily dose of interesting links that my 500 contacts provide me with. I’ve grown fond of rewinding through my stream, reading my friends’ messages and favoriting links that look good. As I’ve pointed out previously, you can parse a lot of links if you have a [...]
Oppdatering 7. oktober 2009: Fjellinjens ansatte (tror jeg) har svart meg i kommentarene. Tusen takk for hjelpen!
Oppdatering 22. oktober 2009: Fjellinjen har vesentlig forenklet sitt betalingssystem. Nå blir alle passeringer etterfakturert.
