Is the industry ready for another tool diaspora? Talks from Interaction 18 available online →Interaction 18, probably the largest and most renowned UX conference in the world, took place between February 3 and 8 in Lyon, France.

A year ago…A designer's guide to working with product managers →PMs are superstars who work in very high-pressure environments.
