Shane's Recruitment Blog
This week has been about designing simpler software
I have been working for some time now on some new software. There are lots of things I want to do to enable cleverer smarter ways of working.
My problem however is that no matter how clever our software is, this is not necessarily immediately apparent to our customers and even less apparent to prospective customers.
This week therefore has been about looking at usability and trying to design complex products to look as simple as possible.
This of course is more than simply making something look nice, there is a much more significant purpose to my plan.
Information management is all about extracting value form information and conveying this to the user.
By designing the simplest and easiest to use products I am making this 'conveying this to the user' process as effective as possible. If its not easy to use then people wont use it.
