My musings about Human Computer Interaction. Archive for November, 2009. Jakob Nielson’s take on intuition. Posted by Jenny in Uncategorized. I subscribe to Jakob Nielson’s Alertbox. Today’s email contained an ‘extra’ article that I found very interesting. While all of his Alertbox articles are online and can be found at his website, the twice-monthly email usually contains some other information that is not included in the Alertbox article. One of my biggest pet peeves is cell phone use while driving.

My musings about Human Computer Interaction. Archive for July, 2009. Stand up and Speak Out! Posted by Jenny in Gender and Computerization. I’m constantly scouring the ‘net for UX resources. One of the tools I use is Twitter. Several UX practitioners tweet daily with links to UX-related articles, studies, and even humor. I was appalled that someone tweeting in a professional manner would promote the sexual objectification of women. Was shocking to me. NOTE: I do not believe that all white males who work ...
