Speaker: Richard White, CEO of UserVoice

UI vs UX

the interface

  • what is looks like, how it works
  • the mechanics the experience
  • what does the user feel has he/she uses the product
  • the emotional response

Stroke my ego: the UX of a slot machine, checking email, hits to your blog

Seems magicial: Pandora, Shazam

Gives people super powers: TaskRabbit

Feels effortless: Dropbox, RescueTime

Accrues value: Evernote
