Multiscreen Email Design: Lessons from the ProsLitmus
Recently it seems as if mobile email has become the new hot topic among digital marketers. Much of this conversation centers around the on-screen experience: What's the best way to design an email so it renders well and drives opens, clicks and most importantly conversions and other desired goals on the tiny screen of a smartphone, mid-sized tablet and larger monitor on a laptop or desktop PC? While certainly important questions to ask, this is only one aspect of an effective mobile and multiscreen email marketing strategy. Before you make over the email message itself, you must first work out many other aspects of your multiscreen strategy.
In this Webinar, Loren McDonald will assemble a team of some of the smartest thinkers in the mobile/multiscreen email marketing design arena. Together they will tackle some of the toughest questions and offer real-life advice for getting multiscreen email right.
Among the specific topics will include the following:
Learning the implications of each major screen size and device
Determining what devices your subscriber base is using and how and where they are converting
Discussing the different types of design approaches, such as responsive and scalable, and which is the best fit based on your resources and expertise
Creating a consistent user experience across email and Web/landing pages
Examples and key best practices
Communicating with your designer and programmer
Testing, learning, optimization and measurement/analysis
Future trends and predictions - where is it all going

GfK NIS and nurago: Measuring Digital Consumer Journeysnurago
GfK NIS and nurago are measuring Digital Consumer Journeys across all media types and customer touchpoints.
We combine Network-centered measuring (NIS) with User-centered metering (nurago).
GfK Network Intelligence Solution’s methodology transfers anonymised, real-time IP traffic into fine-grained metrics to understand cross media and long tail consumer behaviour in motion.
GfK nurago‘s LEOtrace® technology measures and tracks individual user behaviour and application usage
on-device within controlled consumer panels.
Measuring and interpreting traffic on mobile network operator’s backbones helps understanding the long tail of Mobile. Currently, data from 5+ million unique users are anonymously evaluated. NIS is new and tested in 7 countries with 8 operators. Data is enriched with demographics, geographics, device features, and content categorisation into a fully consumer privacy proof solution.
nurago‘s LEOtrace® technology provides Holistic Measurement in smaller samples:
Events and data points measured at the point of origin: Web and App Usage, Communication, Location — then enriched with purchase information, attitudinal user feedbacks – and other media usage.
The combination of both results in multidimensional analysis and robust insights.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
