I totally agree, Todd. You need to talk to people who use your product
or website to uncover insights on motivation & behavior. Which is
exactly what I do and will continue to do into the future :-)
Also, to be clear, I'm not promoting the use of unobtrusive/remote as

@Jared:
What you're describing is a situation in which you'd fully implement remote,
unobtrusive testing into an overall test plan. That is not really how I have
used it (and I did not mean to imply that this is how I use it). I'm still
experimenting a bit, but with several clients I have asked th
For what it's worth, I have used remote, unmoderated testing (via
userfly.com) to *inform and create better moderated testing plans*.
That being said, I firmly agree with Jared (and not out of obsequiousness)
that remote, unmoderated testing *alone* can help us understand user
motivation & behavio
I agree with Neha & Sarah; what is my motivation for using this service and
how does it fit within the context (mental model) of what I already do?
The content on the homepage could also be better focused.

I like Tom's approach. Showing is almost always better than telling. If I
had to give a presentation meant to pitch UX, I would UX the heck out of
that presentation. The brochure/cold-call feel doesn't come off right.

It didn't seem like the author was making much of a point other than to say
that people have different attitudes and viewing patterns toward the search
engines. This was more of an exploratory study used to inform future
research areas than anything else.

Thanks for sharing this Nielsen column. It's a topic I have been
experimenting with a bit lately (based on my own findings while conducting
user research) but had not found answers on.
Ultimately I think a solution has to be implemented at the browser level,

It definitely comes down to personal preference. I know a lot of people like
to accompany their keyboard time with electronic/ambient music. I tried that
but it never really stuck.
So I listen to light/indie rock and some instrumental, like Josh Rouse,
Sufjan Stevens, Explosions in the Sky, etc. I
Moosejaw has always had relatively distinctive branding and the redesign
does not stray from this. Visually and graphically I think it's a small step
forward. Not much has changed with navigation and labeling, which I think
could have been improved, but functionally the clothing sections are much

Gmail has started deleting my older gtalk logs. There may be a preference
setting to change this, but it was annoying to find that my old discussions

Derek,
I noticed that VolState.edu does not have a search box anywhere on its home
page. You should add one (I suggest using a Yahoo SiteSearch API) and start
logging searches. Statistics are very handy in political battles, and search
logs are among the most valuable stats you can get your hands
If this case is ruled against Target, it is likely to set precedent near the
existing Web accessibility guidelines in Section 508. With that you would
have a clearly defined standard that businesses must reach. Currently
Section 508 applies only to federal government Web sites or
institutions/grou
As I understand it, the ruling only granted class-action status.
Regardless, this will certainly become a larger issue.
Here at Michigan State University, we have been promoting Web accessibility
for several years. I think it's great that basic requirements could finally
