World Usability Day


http://worldusabilityday.org/

With the growing world of technology, usability has become a major issue in many ways. Sure, Tivo is great but is it easy to use?

Does your TV remote control intimidate you?

You are not alone and help may be on the horizon. Daniel Woo at the University of South Whales in Australian conducts an interactive exercise with his HCI students using several different TV remote controls to try the same task (recording a TV program).

Each TV remote control organizes the task differently, so the students carefully note the different steps required. Then they look at how real people think about the task, which helps to identify out what features and action steps might work better.
