What it does

It's not that you set out to create a poorly designed product, but lots of mistakes—big or small—along the way left you with an interface that does its job, but is painful to use. I think you can learn to fix it yourself. Undo those mistakes one at a time to create an experience that your customers won't notice. Wait… what? Yes, I said an experience they won't notice. Frustration and confusion get noticed. Completing a task quickly and easily doesn't. Great experiences feel effortless. Designs are clear, buttons are easy to find. The process will go so smoothly that the customers won't think anything of it. That means your customers are using your application to get work done…from nathanbarry.com
