Graham, Connor, Satchell, Christine, Rouncfield, Mark and Benda, Peter (2007): Lessons From Failure: Re-conceiving Blogging as Personal Change Support. In: Proceedings DUX: Conference on Design for User Experience November 5–7, 2007, Chicago, USA. . Available online

“This paper reports on research-driven design of quite ordinary social technologies. It describes an exploratory field study involving re-conceiving a social technology designed to operate across devices and networks – Nokia LifeBlog – to support life change. Here we briefly describe LifeBlog’s design and summarise results of a field study of its extended use by people trying to quit smoking. Through this summary we reflect on how issues of personal disclosure, connectedness, visibility, awareness, accountability and privacy are critical to LifeBlog’s design for this problem space. Although we clearly document some notable features of failure, both of the technology and the quit attempts, understanding the nuances and subtleties of failure highlights important design considerations. Finally, we present and describe some possible enhancements to LifeBlog and a specific set of (albeit untested) design ideas emerging from: a design workshop involving the participants in the field study; and a desktop design exercise.”

Ashkanasy, Shawn, Benda, Peter and Vetere, Frank (2007): Happy coincidences in designing for social connectedness and play through opportunistic image capture. In: Proceedings of DUX07 Designing for User eXperiences 2007. p. 4. Available online

“We explore the opportunities and constraints for sharing personal and 'social group' communications through the use of multi-location interactive image displays and mobile image capture devices. Accordingly, we seek to provide a better understanding of the use of such technologies in supporting close tie relationships through the implementation of Collage, an interactive image display. Collage has been designed for immediate and lightweight modes of sharing though synchronous and asynchronous interaction between users and digital images/text. We report on the results of a technology probe with three related families over a ten-week period. Through interviews and participant data we provide a rich account of their use with the system, emergent practices and usability issues that enabled and limited their experience of sharing digital family images. We also show evidence for user driven resolution of ambiguities in the system as an enabler of new experiences -- What might be called "happy coincidences".”

Graham, Connor, Benda, Peter, Howard, Steve, Balmford, James, Bishop, Nicole and Borland, Ron (2006): "heh -- keeps me off the smokes...": probing technology support for personal change. In: Kjeldskov, Jesper and Paay, Jane (eds.) Proceedings of OZCHI06, the CHISIG Annual Conference on Human-Computer Interaction 2006. pp. 221-228. Available online

“The design and evaluation of computing technology supporting a process of personal change presents both opportunities and challenges for HCI. Here we describe an existing program of ongoing smoking cessation support delivered via the Internet, and present the case for augmenting this system using messaging and 'social' technologies. A key concern in this enterprise is reconciling a model of human behaviour with models of technology interaction. This involves utilizing a model describing the health behaviour change process to inform present support (an interactive, Web-based 'coaching' system -- the QuitCoach or QC) and future technologies augmenting this system. The two data sets we present (patterns of use of the QC and emails sent to the site) illustrate some broad requirements for interactive support programs, operating through several channels of communication, for smokers trying to quit.”

“ Software design is the act of determining the user's experience with a piece of software. It has nothing to do with how the code works inside, or how big or small the code is. The designer's task is to specify completely and unambiguously the user's whole experience. ”

-- David Liddle, From Bringing Design to Software, edited by Terry Winograd, 1996 ”
