On the road….

I’m overseas for the next couple of days on a consulting job (and yes I do consider the North island overseas!) Not sure how internet availability is there so I may not get to post much or at all.

Just advance warning for those who need their daily dose of Kepes.

BarCampChristchurch - all finished!

Thanks everyone for a great day!

I’m going home…….

Live from BarCampChristchurch Pt 2

Matt Powell from LeftClick talking about development. The misconception that the API is more impotant than the GUI. Common myths;

  1. Users are idiots
  2. If you build it, they will come
  3. Design is not my job
  4. Coupling is bad - fronend and backend
  5. It’s not that bad - users use the stuff for a long time - it has to work well and nicely

Advice - talk to the users and THEN design the interface
