One Minute Spark #80 - Stickies Everywhere!


Click the image to watch the video
Kate Rutter gave an awesome and inspiring talk at Adaptive Path last night. I always thought stickies are just simple little things you put notes on and stick to the wall. And yes, now I know that they are - but now I also know that there is so much more you can do with them - and you can do it in places you might not have immediately thought of.
The stickies shown in this video were generated at UX Week 2007 in Washington DC. They are in response to the question 'How can we engage organizations in embracing UX practices?'

What's This?

This is what we were doing here originally. It was tons of fun, we met soooo many cool people a learned so much.

The 49Sparks Podcast is focused on design and trends. It's mostly video because that way you see the people, their passion and what it is they're talking about.

Our podcasts are about one minute long because that way you know where the important stuff is - and we know your time is precious!
