Great Advice on Writing Copy for the Web

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 11:16:50 +0000

Rockable Press, the people behind the sites like Freelance Switch have just published a new and great ebook helping you to write better copy for your sites.

As this is an issue we all constantly battle with, from our clients asking us how to do it to even ourselves trying to come up with the best copy for our sites I thought I’d let you know about it.

You can find the ebook and more info about it on Rockable Press website

My top 3 UX blogs this year

admin — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 06:32:15 +0000

I don’t know about you but at this time of the year I usually get into the mood of looking back at what I have worked on, achieved and learned throughout the year. I usually end up making a lot of lists, like my favorite sites, books that inspired me the most. Or what were my best sources of inspiration, professional wisdom and many others.

And this year was really an User eXperience year for me. I devoted quite a lot of the time discovering it. Of course I didn’t learn UX from blogs alone but the three blogs listed below were really helpful.

And for that I want to thank the guys behind them.

So, here it is, my top 3 list of UX blogs out there.

1. UX Booth

2. Usability Post

3. Good Usability

A quick glance at what books I read now

admin — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 12:27:52 +0000

I have a habit of checking other peoples libraries of books almost straight after entering their homes.

I know it’s awful but there is nothing I can do about it. I simply can’t resist discovering new books and being recommended ones worth reading.

This morning though I thought of doing the opposite and sharing what books I read now:

1. Handbook of Usability Testing by Jeffrey Rubin and Dana Chisnell

2. Design of everyday things by Don Norman

3. Purple Cow by Seth Godin
