Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss Interaction Design Foundation meet-up to be held in September. Which topics are you interested in discussing? What challenges are you facing? What inspires you in the field of UX/interaction design?
Leave your comments below. Let's start a great and buzzing meetup!
Sadhia, it is a shame you cannot participate. Get well soon ;) How many are ready for our meetup tomorrow? Any suggestions for a place where we could meet? (where it would be possible to seat all of us)
Hello guys. Due to illness I won't be able to participate in tomorrow's meetup. I suggest that one of you finds a place, which could be a local cafe to meet at. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Great idea to meet! My biggest challenge: how to convince possible users of our product to spend time on my initial interview? The goal of the interview is to get to know possible users and get better understanding of the problem that the users are facing. (The interview where I gather data for creating personas and user stories). Everyone is so busy these days. "Busy" is becoming some sort of curse... So, people are not willing to spend time on the interview. What is your experience with initiating this type of user interviews? How do you convince users of your product/service to spend time on the interview? Perhaps this could be one of the topics for the meet up? :)
Hi Kristina, thanks for sharing your thoughts! That's indeed a good and valid question you are asking - how to engage users in interviews. Let's discuss it at the meet-up.
