My pleasure

[@Hauwhal100]

Thank you for making this video👍

[@gibygeorge4789]

I want to see typos. What an honest creative person you are💌

[@Ciuin_Sam]

This was a great conversation! And I respect Vitaly for calling out the AI-stench 😂 More typos and honesty!

[@SanjayTPlays]

Vitalys energy is so contagious it's great

[@psychologyofphotography]

Absolutely agree with the emphasis on the human touch in design! The conversation around AI is fascinating, but maintaining a humane and authentic experience is crucial. I love the idea of embracing the messiness and unpredictability of the real world in design. It's the imperfections that make interactions feel genuine. And you're spot on about the potential eeriness of hyper-personalization. Balancing customization with a sense of humanity is key.

[@buffalodesign]

Thanks so much

The title of "How To Maximize Your Website's Effectiveness" is not accurate. This is a UX conversation about how UX designers determine effectiveness with user testing and then some future conjecture.

[@AndreaDingbatt]

Indeed, ~ but, It Is a Subject that Would Help you Maximize your Websites Effectiveness!! In my Opinion, you are Nit -Picking, ~ I think perhaps you were having a Sh*tty Day?! If so, you have my sympathy... I just got knocked back again with my Job Search,,, When the Employer found out I'm a Wheelchair User with health problems, due to a TBI.... Up until That Moment,, They were about to Offer me the job!! I Hope You have a Better Week and Life Improves for You very soon!! Andréa and Critters. ...XxX.... Ps, The Disability doesn't Effect my Work, ~ but it Certainly Puts the Employers Off!!

[@tonybarzuna]

@@AndreaDingbatt Sucks that there are people that would make a decision based off of your disability. Props to you for having such a great attitude.

[@GaeiusGutierrez]

Titles that portray the ultimate benefit tend to work better than just describing what they are doing. (Because it solves a problem) No one would watch if the title was "Two UX designers talking about X"

[@AndreaDingbatt]

​@@tonybarzunaThank you very much for your kind reply Tony!! I've gone from being a fiercely Independent person,,, Athletic and Very Fit,,, ~I was successful in my career and loved the work!! I spent Way Too much Time Grieving over what I can't do!! Now I'm looking Forward to what I Can Do!! Yep it sucks A$$ getting judged by the Wheelchair, I'm thinking of Decorating it!! Lol!😂 (*Loads of Bright Holographic Paper and Googly Eyes!!) I'm on the Wrong side of 55, and I Have to get my Fun where I can!! Thank you again for your kindness, ~ I hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead of you!!❤ Namasté 🙏🕊️🕊️🕊️ Andréa and Critters. .XxX...

[@AndreaDingbatt]

@@GaeiusGutierrez Absolutely 💯 Agreed!!😎👍👍

- [00:00] 🧩 Use templates as a starting point but customize them to fit your specific needs when conducting user testing. - [01:41] 🤝 Begin user testing by speaking with just five people to uncover insights and identify pain points. - [03:37] 📊 Measure the success of UX design changes by conducting before-and-after testing with representative tasks and at least 15 participants. - [05:25] 🤔 Consider the balance between AI-driven personalization and maintaining a humane touch in user experiences. - [07:00] 🧠 Embrace AI advancements but also value imperfections and human elements in design to create more authentic and engaging experiences.

[@ThrowbackGaming1]

00:01 Conducting user tests with a small group can provide valuable insights and is not as time-consuming or expensive as commonly thought. 01:06 Testing and analyzing user interaction 02:07 Measuring website's effectiveness is crucial for success 03:10 Identify representative tasks for the website or product. 04:11 Testing user tasks and measuring success 05:14 Representative tasks are critical for website application effectiveness 06:20 Creating experiences for a majority of people with simple, humane design 07:24 Websites should have a human touch

[@AndreaDingbatt]

Blasted Spam/Scammers are Really Trying with the**Fake Thread** Thing!! If they would put as Much Work into Actually Working they'd have a Decent Income!! Instead of Being Cowardly Conmen who Try to Take Advantage of Hard Working People!! I Often Wonder how Proud thier Families are of Them?!!

He asked for typos, and he got them!

[@PtmksU]

My greatest concern is how to recover from all these economic and global troubles and stay afloat especially with the political power tussle going on in US. The government has really called things more difficult for its citizens, and we can't sit back and bear all the consequences of the bad governance. We need to take our financial life serious... I recommend stock market investment and digital currencies

[@aliyahpilgrim]

If you want to be successful, you must take responsibility for your emotions, not blame others. In addition to making you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal responsibility. There is always a risk in every investment, but people still invest and succeed. You must look outside if you want to be successful in life..

[@HaoyuChang]

The first step to successful investing is determining your goals and risk tolerance, either on your own or with the help of a financial professional, but it is highly recommended that you use a professional.

[@Rexxlie]

There is nothing better than hiring an expert in any trade, selfishness and greed have deterred many from doing this and they ended up suffering a huge loss.

[@Maggie_Q]

Well l've been trying to get a good broker who can be able to tell me how to go about digital currencies. Can anyone tell me about one?

[@hungminn]

As a newbie you'll need to invest in a company that is working towards sustainability, like that of expert helen jackson and her abilities in handling investments are top Classic >
