You and your contacts keep complete control your data, but you needn’t setup your own computer server in order to do so. Plus, you can send messages without even connecting to the internet. Using Briar, you can send messages over Bluetooth, a shared WiFi connection, or even a shared USB stick. That could be a big advantage for people in places where internet connections are unreliable, censored, or non-existent.

Briar is the work of computer scientist Michael Rogers, security expert Eleanor Saitta, interaction designer Bernard Tyers, software engineer Ximin Luo, and a few other volunteers.

The Psychologist’s View of UX Design | UX Magazine
►http://uxmag.com/articles/the-psychologists-view-of-ux-design

The story of the elephant reminds me of the different view of design that people of different backgrounds, education, and experience have. A visual designer approaches UX design from one point of view, the interaction designer from another, and the programmer from yet another. It can be helpful to understand and even experience the part of the elephant that others are experiencing.

I’m a psychologist by training and education. So the part of the elephant I experience applies what we know about people and how we apply that to UX design. I take research and knowledge about the brain, the visual system, memory, and motivation and extrapolate UX design principles from that.

This article is a snapshot of the psychologist’s view of the elephant.

Article intéressant, (un peu léger quand même). J’aime bien l’approche (ci dessus).
