That big idea you have? It needs to fail! Behind closed doors, before launch. Usability testing. Do it now. The success part is all about you.

If license plates are a form of self-expression, mine says I like numbers.

@ryaninteractive @UXSisters @jakek Start before you feel ready, otherwise you're starting too late.

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

@ryaninteractive @UXSisters @jakek Sometimes, "least effort" means the method you're most proficient with. None is inherently best.

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

@ryaninteractive @UXSisters @jakek Define your research questions. Choose whichever tool/method answers them with the least effort.

@Steele_9 wrong csnyder, but happy to know my handle has such good friends!

@sylwill @arizzico The conference organizers say they will be doing this. And we need to get permission. But stay tuned!

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

Just for once, it would be lovely to learn something by trial and success.

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

@crosswiredmind Then it would be a mercy killing.

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

"Ask" is a verb. It is not a noun. If you deliberately misuse it one more time, I shall homicide you.

Charmed when @achurchill gave me a bottle of wine as thanks for #uievs. LOL'd when I saw its label: "We'll Never Do That Again." /@jmspool

Designing a study to measure drop-off is like pushing bubbles through a sieve and being surprised that little bubbles aren't coming out.

Are we ready to accept our Twitterbook overlords? I have absolutely no info, just my pattern recognition on overdrive.

@livlab @poussonlipson OMG. Knit hat to match the outfit. VH Cat ready to consume the universe in 3,2,1...

So I've just missed Halloween, but my new favorite curse is, "May you have highly engaged stakeholders."

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

Dear designer, Yep, I heard that stakeholder ask you to "make the form sexy." I'm with you on this one, dude.

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

Hello, point of diminishing returns. I'm so glad to notice your arrival. Let's go have dinner, shall we?

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

Dear designer, no I did not make a list of 20 arguments to bring up one at a time until you cave in. But thanks for the idea.

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

Craig: Can you think of anything else you want done around the hou-- don't think too hard!

[Carolyn Snyder @csnyder]

@heidi_writer Agreed.. And if you have to omit one, omit the headline rather than trying to give it a double duty.
