Organizations that focus on customer success and reducing customer time see more positive customer behavior. While success gets you in the game, time is what wins it. Obsession with making things easier and simpler for customers is key in digital.

Beauty isn't just subjective; science suggests it's rooted in neural processes. Neuroesthetics explores the brain's engagement with art, crucial for designers shaping our experiences.

London's buses unintentionally fail mobility-challenged users. Bus drivers, pressured by punctuality metrics, often show impatience because loading wheelchairs causes delays. This highlights a critical flaw: prioritising speed over human experience in system design.

Risk homeostasis: people often use new safety features not to be safer, but to engage in other risky behaviors. Case in point: using adaptive cruise control to text while driving. #Psychology #Safety

The Daily Mail's list of cancer causes is absurd, from bacon and beer to Facebook and feeling lonely. This 'learned helplessness' paralyzes us. Empower yourself with real facts, not fear-mongering headlines. #HealthFacts #CriticalThinking

Old methods from the '80s and '90s offered valid insights but were too awkward to use. Perhaps it's time to re-examine and revive some of these forgotten techniques.

Simulating user behavior, while not as valid as real-user testing, offers instant insights. It's a million times quicker, making it worth considering even if imperfect. New tools can augment our existing research methods.

Since 2010, UX Brighton has curated single-track conferences with a narrative arc. It's like one big talk from 8 smaller ones, allowing careful selection of speakers and ideas to address the theme's questions on staying competitive in UX.

Attendees will leave this conference equipped with practical, actionable tools and advice, ready for immediate implementation on Monday morning. This could include recommendations for specific software or actionable strategies.

We think we know what makes things fast, but our mental shortcuts (metaphors) can lead us astray. Even the fastest iron felt slow because its shape didn't match our 'fast' expectation. Apple succeeded by translating complex tech into the familiar 'office' metaphor.

Bringing professional eye exams to rural areas using mobile tech was innovative. But the team discovered a key issue: homes lacked the required 3-meter testing distance.

David Ogilvy said, "Give me the freedom of a tight brief." Constraints are the secret to creativity, not a limitation. Think origami, Dr. Seuss, or poetry. Lean into your project's constraints to unlock innovation. #Creativity #Innovation #Constraints

The pressure to deliver faster can lead to mistaking rapid output for actual progress. Are we creating genuine improvements or just adding noise? We need principles to guide us, not throw out the essentials with the new tools. #DesignProcess #ProductDevelopment

Designing for billions is complex. While advice abounds for single products, large organizations need supportive internal conditions. Focus on creating a helpful environment for good design work before relying on standardized processes across hundreds of teams.
