Saturday InfoCamp 2010
Keynote: @walkingpaper: UX and Libraries
Session 1: @nickf: Mobile UX/IA
What is UX
What is the traffic document required for creating new products.
How do you do discovery
Know the business
What are the technical hurdles for mobile
How important is strategic design
Use sketching to show the interaction to determine how things should work.
How to demo functionality.
Don't use red in sketches
Use metal template sytems.
Design Commission
Show pictures of cats and dogs
Use the tools to make product development easy
Do not do IA without the Build process
Need to clarify gaps by going through the development together.
Create a feature as a team
Do not think of a hand-off as a completed project
Ensure that testing is built in
Set up a test harness
Put together analytics
Put together A/B by default
How do you select native vs. web
Lunch: Value of User Testing
Use lean startup
Minimum viable product
Create something that demos
TODO Prototype first with mock data
Minimize testing as a task for QA
Don't use traditional 30 page functional specification documents
Use people to talk to get work done
List of things people need to do doesn't have priority
Define the goals for people
Don't use documentation
Layer in new functionality
Work with prototypes
If design is providing new UI (non-reuse UI) there is a failure
Product should be demoable and killable early
Process
Determine high level data consumption
Note the current business goal
Note the user goal
Determine 1 sentence summary
Do not define an implementation or UI
Session 2: Donald Brinkman: Big History, Deep Zoom, and Long Tail
Books: 2266, You are Not a Gadget, Vilem Flusser
ChronoZoom
Big History
Seadragon
ChronoZoom: Interactive timescales of Cosmos, Earth, Life, Huma
Zoom as the future of search
What could be done to position search results in some output?
Yearbooks search for showing the number of counts
Create a POC that shows visualization of yearbook pages that is interactive based on OCR.
Should be done without a specification.
Example: Roman history
David Christian
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Christian_(historian)
Use part of a lecture, site, and promotion.
Using Big History in High School
The classic view of education.
Live Labs: Pivot
Session 3: @changeorder: Design a product
Create a yoga appliction
10 minutes: Research and discussion
10 minutes: Design prototype
10 minutes: Use product and iterate
Session 4: UX Research for Mobile
Sunday InfoCamp 2010
Tasks
TODO Strategic UI Mission
TODO Create visualization of projects and technologies
What are the overlap between data on site, projects…
Core focus is data discovery and mining
Wireframes, comps, and functional specifications are not requirements.
Work closely with Product to determine
These are mostly Agile principles for product development.
