#80 James & Per are broken




UX Podcast show

Summary: Episode 80 is a link show. James and Per discuss three articles they've stumbled upon whilst dredging the internets. First - Everything is broken. Really, everything is broken. Can we fix it? Do we care enough to fix it? Second - UX without user research is not UX. Isn't it? Does it matter?  And lastly - Hey designers: stop trying to be so damned clever. Is the cleverness of your design actually getting in the way? How good is your usability filter?
