How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love UX @ 360|Flex

November 16, 2009 · No Comments

This past Friday, I gave a presentation, "UX For The Development-Minded" at RIA Unleashed.  It went really well, but I have to admit, the audience got short-changed.  I actually cut a lot of content out, about one third, because it was orginally written to be a longer form presnetation for 360|Flex.  Well, I'm happy to say that you can see the entire presentation, unabridged, at 360|Flex San Jose in March of 2010 because I just got notice that I will be giving the full presentation.  Let's call this version the "director's cut."

RIA Unleashed Slides - UX For The Development Minded

November 15, 2009 · 4 Comments

Brian put on a great event this past Friday at Bentley University.  The attendance was more than most other conferences I've been to this year.  I am wondering if these one-day events are the way that conferences should be trending.  The content was great (amazing speaker lineup) and the location was great.  

I gave an overview of some Experience Design concepts, from a developer's point-of-view.  Here are the slides, but I really feel that without the rest of the preso experience, but here they are if you want them.
