What is the quickest way to transition from Technical Writing to Usability/User Experience and pick up the necessary skills to build an entry level portfolio?

February 22, 2011

You are going to have a hard time finding projects if you are in a company that has no UX projects or already has a experienced group of UX designers, so I suggest you do what many writers do in…

How do you kickstart and boost your productivity?

February 21, 2011

This may sound dated and obvious, but a simple way to kickstart productivity is to know what you HAVE to do every day. That's it. If you don't know what you HAVE to do each day, you will expend your…

February 19, 2011

I use Quora Badge as a widget on https://www.josephdickerson.com but I also have just added my RSS feed for my answers (and JUST my answers, not my comments or my “follows”) to my blog using a great plug-in called WP-O-Matric……

Does being a passionate user of a product or service make it more or less difficult for a UX designer to do a good job designing its experience?

February 19, 2011

Good question. For a long time I actually avoided using online bill-payment products because I was the lead designer/researcher for my company’s bill pay product – I didn’t want to bias myself and wanted to respond to the research and…

Who is the best James Bond?

February 19, 2011

Joseph Dickerson, User Experience Architect I agree with Jennifer's thesis, not her conclusion/opinion. Craig has done one good Bond, one average one. Yes, Craig is closer to Fleming's "blunt instrument"… But Connery personified Bond first, made him real, and made…

When will the remaining James Bond 007 movies be released on Blu-ray?

February 19, 2011

Joseph Dickerson, User Experience Architect It depends on the economy. The demand for "catalog" titles on DVD and bluray has declined quite a bit over the past three years. They may push more Bond blurays out when the next Bond…

What is the most visually striking James Bond film opening sequence?

February 19, 2011

Joseph Dickerson, User Experience Architect I think a better question is "What is the most visually striking Bong title sequence?" Which in my opinion would be Casino Royale, followed by Goldeneye and then The Living Daylights. They all have one…

My Quora answers, Orson Welles

Is ‘The Other Side of the Wind’ Orson Welles’ masterpiece?

February 19, 2011

Joseph Dickerson, I'm a fan of the films of Orson Welles. Even hi… Maybe, but probably not. It was a budget production that took years to do, and Welles never edited the film together. He left detailed notes on how…

What are the main differences in between magazine and newspaper layout designs?

February 19, 2011

Keep in mind that most newspapers are still using the column layouts (4 to 6 columns) that have been used for decades. Magazines have a lot more “freedom” to break from that layout model – though many newspapers “play” with…

What makes the Red Room work so well?

February 19, 2011

Joseph Dickerson, The owls are not what they seem. It's an obtuse question. Define "work well." Does that mean in a dramatic context? As a concept? I'll answer the former and the latter. The Red Room dramatically is a representation…
