		<description><![CDATA[Had a great chat with another one of Lana's friend's, Ellen today. She studied UI design at Carnegie Mellon under Randy Pausch and has worked at google. She now develops user experience for small business applications. I was able got some great feedback about how to structure user testing to get the best results and even a bit about designing for the elderly.
Designing Tests

What Are You Trying to Do? Determine what your application will solve is the hardest point in the design process. Once this is clear, creating tests to determine the positioning of icons, colours etc should largely write themselves.

Clear Metrics for Success: When testing it is important to have clearly defined measures of success that allow you to evaluate the strength of different approaches. These can be click throughs, number of games played or messages sent. Even better is if these can be automatically tracked by the software. Once you get more of this data you will develop a stronger intuition towards what the users respond to. Until then use solid data to inform your design choices. <a href="http://hakkasan.wordpress.com/2009/03/10/ellen-beldner-ui/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hakkasan.wordpress.com&amp;blog=6822558&amp;post=23&amp;subd=hakkasan&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon picking the brain of Lisa Wong, a designer at PS3 R&#38;D, on the future of game and how to design fun. After nearly 3 hours in a great little tea shop off Van Ness (Leland Tea Company) I came away with a head full of random threads that I'm now going to try and summarise.
On game design and Interaction

Fun is Emotional: What are the emotional triggers of the intended user. Get inside their head. Enough said.

Player to Player Interaction = Emote: The strongest online interactions come from people able to project their "voice" and personality through the medium. Text alone is only effective if the person has a strong command of written prose. Often abstractions such a emotacons can bridge this gap and allow for the subtler nuiances to come through. Find ways to condense the key interactions into their simplest forms. Can it be made into a button press. <a href="http://hakkasan.wordpress.com/2009/03/10/lisa-wong-ps3-rd/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hakkasan.wordpress.com&amp;blog=6822558&amp;post=6&amp;subd=hakkasan&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
