Design In The Trenches With Chris Bernard

Editor's Notes

  1. Hi, I’m Chris Bernard, a User Experience Evangelist for Microsoft. In this session we are going to take a bit of a different tact and talk about how Microsoft has been walking the walk with User Experience in designing some of their own products. We’ll discuss some of challenges we’ve had, how design has evolved at Microsoft over time, and how we applied some principals and practices that are central to effective user experience. Finally, throughout this conversation will discuss what it’s like to work as a designer at Microsoft and have time for some questions at the end of the presentation and demonstrations. So, let’s get started. As someone that’s been a practicing interaction designer for a number of years
