Slide 24: Gordon’s rules applied to UX

Slide 25: 5 rules

Slide 26: Rule 1: Keep it f***ing simple That’s it in a nutshell.

Slide 27: Rule 2: “Customers customers customers” Great UX is about the whole experience Know your users Design your products and services for your users  (not for yourself – unless you’re the sole user)

Slide 28: Rule 3: Communication is key Communicate with your clients Communicate with your users Communicate with each other Do it in a timely manner

Slide 29: Rule 4: Know what you’re doing Do your research Understand the context and the constraints Make great products!

Slide 30: Rule 5: Be passionate! Cook from the heart! Be passionate about what you’re doing Otherwise (in Gordon’s words)... “You might as well just f**k off.”
