                                subsequently to darken that light”
                                        - Edward Thorndike (1920)

#5 - Impolite vs. Courteous


 One person’s “Rudeness” CheckList:

                        1. They pop up on the critical paths where a gentle touch is vital (email sign-up,
                             shopping carts)
                        2. They are in red
                        3. THEY ARE SHOUTING AT YOU IN CAPITALS
                        4. They use the inaccessible language of legal professionals ("...that requires
                             correction??")
                        5. You are being told off
                        6. You feel stupid and humiliated

UX Checklist
#6 - Dangerous vs. Safe

 Default should be Safe or Recoverable




© 2012 SAP AG. All rights reserved.              Internal   16
UX Checklist
#7 – Complexity vs. Simplicity


 Can 2 Clicks be collapsed into 1 Click?                                   “Get rid of half the words on each
                                                                            page, then get rid of half of what’s
 Can any words be Omitted?                                                                 left.”
 Can any steps be Shortened?                                                           - Steve Krug (2006)

 Can any steps be Automated?


“#17 – Omit Needless Words: Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a
paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines
and a machine no unnecessary parts.”
                                      - William Strunk, Jr. and E B. White (The Elements of Style)


© 2012 SAP AG. All rights reserved.                                                                           Internal   17
UX Checklist
Aim for Simplicity! Less is More.

                             “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” - Leonardo da Vinci

     “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” - Albert Einstein

“Nothing is more simple than greatness; indeed, to be simple is to be great.” - Ralph Waldo
                                                        Emerson

 “..in anything at all, perfection is finally attained not when there is no loner anything to add,
         but to when there is no longer anything to take away..” - Antoine de St. Exupery

Editor's Notes

  1. - Largely based on Norman Checklist Norman p 179- #7 was added by myself, as part of LEAN principles. It’s like Steve Krug’s cute 50% of the words and then 50% again.
  2. Window on the left is from a company called “Sky-Frame”On the right is doors we have @ waterloo. Identical Handles on both slides (Push & Pull). At least they hint which side is the higne!
  3. Irish Traffic Light = Green always comes out on top.My Colour-Blind Friend/RED + Green Confusion in HS once drove to Quebec and almost got into an accident.
