Hello All,
Apologies for the cross posting.
Hi, I am looking for senior user experience professionals based in Singapore :
You should have an education in any of the user experience fields such as :
a) Information Architecture,
b) Human Factors,
c) HCI,

e) related others.
I have no idea what went on between twitter and facebook; but, I do know
that big players often create the illusion of not teaming up at first and
the divide and conquer strategy going on behind the scenes is most

I think user research is a toss up whether it is good or bad. It really
depends on the goals of the project and the people presenting the results.
