  • Web Teams - an Interview with Jesse James Garrett
    I asked Jesse James Garrett about his "Nine Pillars of Successful Web Teams" model. See Jesse's article (on the Adaptive Path website) for the graphical representation of his model, and his brief article on the subject.I highly recommend Jesse's book "The Elements of User Experience", which is a model of clarity.Jesse's website is well worth a visit for his thoughts on information architecture, user experience design, and his visual vocabulary for information architecture and interaction design.(References to books on this webiste are links to Amazon.com - we earn a small commission on any purchases you make on following such links).

  • Community is Not a Tech Thing

    I spoke to fellow Irishman Ken
    Carroll of ChinesePod - a highly
    successful online language learning
    business based in Shanghai.

    A key component of the ChinesePod
    success is a very strong focus on
    user needs and the user experience.

    In this interview, Ken describes the
    philospophy that drives ChinesePod,
    and how it can apply to other
    businesses.

    The Hangzhou conference that Ken
    refers to is User Friendly, which will
    take place in November.
