The Why and How: UI Case Studies by Daniel Burka
Burka used three case studies from his experience at Digg and Pownce to examine challenges that many designers face when designing interfaces. He specifically focussed on the iterative design process and many of it’s benefits and pitfalls.
He began with the overall iterative design of digg.com, beginning with the initial redesign which started as a client project during his time at silverorange. Burka then delved into the recent controversy surround the redesign of the comments at digg.com which lead to him discussing user testing, feedback, and acceptance.
He also stepped through the design process of the recently launched Pownce.com.
