The Web is Human

0 likes•576 views

In the second decade of the second millennium, many of us are approaching the web wrong. We have trouble defining goals, addressing needs, and defining scope. We use phrases like “Mobile First,” or “Content First.” We forget where we came from, and lack vision on where we’re going by bogging ourselves down in processes or allowing programmers to do front end UI. Everything about our environment is transitional – everything except one core component: us. People create websites, people consume websites, and there comes a point where strategy needs to yield to technological requirements and open itself to what our users want and need. I’m talking about “People First.”

Social Media... Woop! Woop! (February 2012)

Hi. My name is Neil, and I’m an addict. I’ll admit it, I’m addicted to technology, and you know what, I suspect that you are too. We’re all addicts now aren’t we? We’ve all become addicted to a very modern drug called technology. It’s not our fault that we’re addicted to technology, we're only human after all. You see technology is just too damn addictive. And why is it so addictive? Because it’s been designed to be so by designers like you and me. It’s been designed to engage, to demand our attention, to draw us in and to slowly but surely get us hooked. In this talk which was originally delivered at UCD 2016, I’m going to argue the case for why we as designers should be helping to break this cycle of addiction. Why we should be focusing on making a positive impact on peoples’ lives, rather than chasing ever greater usage of our products and designs. I’m going to show you how to create products that are more ethically engaging; that let people get on with their lives without becoming a slave to the machine!

"Mobile first," is a concept that serves us well as a design tool, putting constraints on our messaging, layout, etc. But to use "mobile first" as a complete mobile strategy can lead to some dangerous lines of thought. There's a bigger picture that needs to be seen, and it's what we've always done when developing experiences for the web. We need to put the "Experience First." Then we can think about "mobile", "desktop", "lean-back", and whatever other technologies are released in the next several years. It's not about devices, it's about users and experiences. Presentation first given at BarCamp Nashville in October of 2011.

In this session, Paul will share some of his most recent mobile design experiences and challenges. Two new CMS-based mobile course companions which he launched this Fall will serve as design examples for the session. Topics will include the on-going evolution of the “mobile first” viewpoint, the importance of emotion, recent efforts to better support learning, and experimentations with Twitter Bootstrap (a responsive HTML framework). Participants will be encouraged to also share their viewpoints and experiences.

During this workshop, Michael Fienen will walk you through a number of techniques and processes that will enable you to take your implementation of Google Analytics well beyond a plain set-it-and-forget-it configuration. Better analytics allows you to make better informed decisions and save time (plus you look super smart in meetings when you can answer questions on the fly). You’ll learn how to create custom segments and dimensions to better identify people on your site, use goal funnels to determine the effectiveness of inquiries and see how tools like Tag Manager can enable you to easily create broad spectrum tracking across your site on elements of all types.

My God, It's Full of Stars: Your Guide to a Visual Design Career

Michael Fienen

Higher ed has a problem with its websites. Many of us are past that first big hump of "The Millennial Redesign." We've plopped down money on a shiny new CMS. Our design is hip and groovy. But an issue snuck in when we weren't looking. Centerpieces have become a staple component of the ever important home page. The problem is that they have homogenized us. We're all doing it, and we're all doing it the same, and pretty much everyone does it badly. This presentation will look at a number of sites and their centerpieces, look at common themes, address why our current trend is a problem, and make suggestions as to where we can go and what we can do to stand out and differentiate ourselves.

The future of marketing lies in communities. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube – wherever your audience is, they are talking about you. As our audiences become more sophisticated and more evolved, it is no longer good enough to market AT them. You have to consider how you engage with them, in turn creating a culture of brand evangelists. But it isn’t easy. When we look at some of the most successful videos on YouTube, one of the most common themes is how they mix content together. As we begin to consider new, fun, engaging ways of interacting with communities, it is important to consider what role remixable media will play in promoting your brand. Some brands have tried and failed. Some have found success. Others still are missing huge opportunities. Regardless, in the world of remixable media in marketing, there is value in giving away something for nothing.

Analytics: they are a great business tool. They help you measure performance. They help you profile users. They help you gauge popularity. But, analytics are more than just pages of hit counts and bounce rates. They can also be a very important design tool that can ensure you make educated, informed decisions on how your site evolves over time. As sites age, the act of redesigning serves a necessary, but costly role. It can frequently be a much better use of resources to constantly be realigning instead. That is - making a consistent stream of smaller, incremental changes over time. To do this, information in your analytics can help resolve tools that are failing, falling out of use, or not being understood. We'll take a look at how you can extract context from Google Analytics in order to plan changes to your web site's home page and templates.

With more memory available, system performance of three Dell devices increased, which can translate to a better user experience Conclusion When your system has plenty of RAM to meet your needs, you can efficiently access the applications and data you need to finish projects and to-do lists without sacrificing time and focus. Our test results show that with more memory available, three Dell PCs delivered better performance and took less time to complete the Procyon Office Productivity benchmark. These advantages translate to users being able to complete workflows more quickly and multitask more easily. Whether you need the mobility of the Latitude 5440, the creative capabilities of the Precision 3470, or the high performance of the OptiPlex Tower Plus 7010, configuring your system with more RAM can help keep processes running smoothly, enabling you to do more without compromising performance.
