User Experience
What is User Experience?




       “     The process required to guide


                                          ”
             a user towards a business goal.
An example...




                yom!
An example...




                Selling strawberries?
                If the business goal is to sell
                strawberries...

                ...then the UX work will
                revolve around making the
                buying process of the
                strawberries as clear,
                straight forward and
                logical as possible.
An example...



  Clear
  Why, as a user, do I need to do that?
  Users are informed of the duration and steps of the process.
An example...



  Clear
  Why, as a user, do I need to do that?
  Users are informed of the duration and steps of the process.

  Straight forward
  The steps involved are limited to the absolute
  necessary.
  Users are not asked for a fax number.

         How to achieve a “good” UX?
How to achieve good UX?


   Think across domains
   UX is everywhere; Design, Coding, Processes,
   Copy writing...

   Keep it simple
   The simplest solution is often the best.

   Be organised
   Regardless of the type of information / data you are
   dealing with, best is to keep it organised.
   This applies to a menu, a page, some code, a url...

   See the big picture
   Don’t isolate your work. Consider its impact on the
   whole product. Think about the consequences.

              The user is right.
              The user is a n00b.
