MinneUX Book Club: Feb. 11, “Sketching User Experiences”

Hello MinneUX’ers –
 
Please join us for our first MinneUX Book Club discussion.  We’ll be meeting Wednesday, Feb. 11 between 6-8pm at Wilde Roast in NE Minneapolis, discussing Bill Buxton’s “Sketching User Experiences”, which I thought would be a good kickoff since it was the most popular choice for those who took the recent survey.
 
When reading the book, please write down your answers to these topics/questions and bring them with you — they will drive our discussion (yes, you can still join us if you haven’t read the book):

  • 2 things in the book that really struck a chord
  • 1 thing you either hated, disagreed with; or don’t understand
  • Have you used or will you use some of the ideas in your practice/job/work?
  • For additional optional reading, check out these sites:
