Follow-Up

Aforementioned xScope is now available in a new version.

Also, Nick Disabato, who successfully funded his design book Cadence & Slang using Kickstarter, is at it again. This time, he’s funding Distance, a quarterly publication featuring long-form essays about design and technology. Help fund Distance by clicking here.

If you liked this, you'll love my book. It's called Designed for Use: Create Usable Interfaces for Applications and the Web. In it, I cover the whole design process, from user research and sketching to usability tests and A/B testing. But I don't just explain techniques, I also talk about concepts like discoverability, when and how to use animations, what we can learn from video games, and much more.

You can find out more about it (and order it directly, printed or as a DRM-free ebook) on the Pragmatic Programmers website.
