A co-worker sent me this to me weeks ago as one of the better examples he’s seen of explaining the real point of user experience. I just now got to take a good look at it and they did an excellent job in the overview. And they do it with what has become the most recent mainstream icon of consumer design, the Apple iPhone. (side note: rumors of the 3G iPhone are gaining momentum, that will be incredible, 3G and email push, enterprise support, sign me up)

Here is the slide show explaining the real point of solid user experience practice:

  • Hey Graeme, great to see you here. Yes, it is a good slide show isn't it, thanked my colleague just the same. User experience seems to be the competency the most overlooked in all of the latest evolutions of the web. At the same, UX could have had one of the greatest impacts.

    Thanks on the congrats. I am very excited about joining the SnagAJob.com team, they have been doing some fantastic work matching the right people with the right jobs in the hourly space. On a side note, I'm not sure how I fit into the Defrag '08 agenda based on my new role but who knows, I'll leave that up to Eric.

    Right now I'm continuing to ramp up at the new job and I look forward to be able to contribute as much as I can. So far, it has been a fantastic first few weeks. The team is intelligent, energetic and full of passion which is what I score so highly. Keep an eye out for us.

    What's up Lou? Great post and love the new redesign of Correlate!!
    I love how they used the iPhone as an example of that, it is so true. iPhone did not add new functionality at all. As a matter of fact compared to other manufactures such as; Sony Ericsson's or Nokia they are behind. Especially when compared to Nokia N95 and the new N96. These phones are packed with features. But the iPhone is really a will designed, easier to navigate piece of hardware that makes all these other phones look childlike. Anyways, great post that all can learn from.
