KATHLEEN’SMAJOR KEYS

Smashing Conf’s MAJOR KEYS!
• Experiment: Try making something for the sake of seeing if it can be done
• Put ideas out into the world to make them a reality
• Designing for the web is hard: Great experience design can be a list of contradictions
• A great customer experience starts with a work environment that allows the team/players to succeed
• London, Ontario is doing pretty darn good!
MAJOR KEY #1
EXPERIMENT
“It annoyed me how people treat each other on the internet sometime. People forget that behind that twitter handle is
a human being with feelings…”
@BrendanDawes
“so I made a machine”@BrendanDawes
People loved this experiment
It’s just a printer connected to the internet…
But wrapping a concept around it made it something special.
When you hold something in your hands it means that much
more to you.
Put your ideas out there and you’ll be surprised by who may
love your work.
