UX Conferences, Remote Design Sprints, Human-First Bots, and moreHere's what's hot in UX this week:
The Best UX and Design Conferences in 2017 →A great way of learning more about UX and getting in touch with professionals who share the same passion as you is to attend UX conferences and events happening around the globe. The events listed here are the ones our team at uxdesign.cc have been to or would like to attend in the near future. Charge your smartphone, bring some business cards in your pocket and consider including one of these design events before or after your next trip. We Need More Companies like Medium → Medium made a big announcement yesterday, but it wasn't a feature launch this time around. It was the opposite. It was as un-announcement. An un-feature. And it was pretty bold. How to Run a Remote Design Sprint without Going Crazy → One of the most common questions about the Google Ventures sprint process is "How do you run a remote sprint? What if the team can't be together in one place?". Let's try to answer that. From a Grad Student to a Product Designer → Reflection notes taken over the course of a year experiencing many facets of a designer's journey; may be helpful for young designers out there. The Biggest UX Challenges Of 2017 → Just a year ago, it seemed like a big deal that iOS is always bugging us about our iCloud storage. Now, designers are asking themselves questions like, "wait, did my UI just give rise to a megalomaniac?" Human-First vs AI-First Approach to Bots → I've designed two chatbot products in the last 1.5 years. The first was smart and slow. The second is "dumb" and fast. Here is why. Design for Internationalization → Imagine you're trying out a new app for the first time. It's getting rave reviews from people on Twitter. They're saying it's brilliant. Life-changing. Delightful. Hmm. That's odd. There's a video up top, but the captions are in a language you don't understand. What to Expect of Artificial Intelligence in 2017 → Mining companies are rolling out autonomous trucks, drills, and trains, which will boost efficiency but also reduce the need for human employees. What does that really mean? Form Design for Complex Applications → From complex ERP systems to Facebook, applications make meaning out of input. The form — in its many manifestations — provides a gateway for user submission. This article illustrates 13 different ways to present forms, and explores the future of data input. How to Annotate and Document UX Deliverables → You just won a big new piece of work. The schedule is tight and so is the budget. Luckily, the project proposal defined the deliverables and timeline, so the team can start immediately and knows exactly what they need to produce and when. Resources & Ideas
