 Design Jargons, UX Smells, and a special collection of articles on ChatbotsWhat's hot in UX this week:
Design Jargons: an Interview with Sagi Shrieber, from Hacking UI → Sagi Shrieber is a designer, writer, & entrepreneur. Co-founder of Hacking UI, founder of PixelPerfectMag, and a UX mentor for startups at Google Campus. What are the new words you see yourself using more often recently? Any new terms that were not part of your vocabulary two years ago? Sagi: Number one is Micro-Interactions. Back then it was all about creating prototypes. Animations were sometimes done in After Effects. Recently (in the past year or two) a lot of new tools came out which a were only about that. Tools like Principle and Origami are now used to communicate transitions & animations better than ever… Designing Anticipated User Experiences → Anticipatory Design is possibly the next big leap within the field of Experience Design. This sounds amazing, but where does it lead us? And how will it affect our relationship with technology? The Rules for Modern Navigation → Websites provide access to all sorts of information. However, many websites have navigation that just works "well enough," allowing people to access what they need to — but after some struggle. Awaken the Champion A/B Tester Within → Athletes in every sport monitor and capture data to help them win: caloric intake, training regimens, and athletic performance, using data to refine every advantage possible. A/B testing can be dominated the same way. We keep hearing questions such as: Should designers code? Should designers prototype? Should designers write copy? We've talked to Kristof Orts, designer at delivery.com, to unpack what that really means. Some product and UI features should almost never be used in well-designed products. Seeing them should be a warning that deeper problems exist in the product's user experience. Combatting Unconscious Bias in Design → A few years ago, a male-led design team was working on a brief for a major athletic apparel company. When the team presented its work to the client, the reaction was honest: the work was too clinical and serious. Lossless Web Navigation with Trails → Since the early 2000's, the desktop metaphor of tabbed browsing has dominated the way we navigate the web. What if we could evolve the standard tabbed browser towards a model based on trails? Chatbots, Chatbots, Chatbots.We've had a few interesting pieces published this week about chatbots and conversational UI. The world keeps talking about conversational interfaces and how that can become a pretty standard interaction in the near future. While we are still not there, we'll keep exploring what that means for our design process and for the way we think about UX. Making Chatbots Talk: Writing UI Scripts Step by Step Designing a Chatbot Conversation: How To Keep Users In The Loop We Need to Talk About Accessibility on Chatbots What we can learn from Alexa's mistakes Chatbots: an interview with Chris Messina, inventor of the hashtag Getting started with chatbots?

A year ago…3 Keys To Creating a Frictionless Experience → As companies dive into creating digital products and services, for customers and employees, they'll be challenged with creating these "Frictionless" experiences. Here are three key elements to think about: 1. Anticipatory design: deliver what users want before they want it Brought to you by your friends at uxdesign.cc. Like the links? Share the love ♥ |
