The Last Word on User Experience

I was pointed to Waterfall 2006 (a parody of the software development process) by an interesting post called “Process as a substitute for competence” on Kill the Meeting. The home page for Waterfall 2006 lists some great titles of research papers. My favorite was on user experience:

“User Interaction: It Was Hard to Build, It Should Be Hard to Use by Jeff Patton”

There are some other great ones too like:

“Crossword Puzzles as Requirements Documents: Make them Work for It”

“User Feedback: Eliminating the Main Cause of Project Overruns”

Brilliant.

    Glad you enjoyed the link, Matt. I’m a geek too but I have no idea whatsoever what “Call of Cthulthu” is…
