Personas Scenario

To create a product that must satisfy a broad audience of users, logic will tell you to make it as broad in its functionality as possible to accommodate the most people. Logic is wrong. Alan Cooper.

Three UX Keys

* Consistency *Consistency is one of the most powerful usability principles: when things always behave the same, users don’t have to worry about what will happen. Instead, they know what will happen based on earlier experience. Jakob Nielsen

* Usability & Accessibility*

Also note that invariably when we design something that can be used by those with disabilities, we often make it better for everyone. Don Norman.

* Be Simple *Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains. Steve Jobs
