Why we click publish: advocating for user centricity through interaction design

Most — if not all — of us are attending WordCamp to make, use, and learn about the world’s best publishing platform, but it’s all too easy to lose focus thinking about twitter widgets, image sliders, facebook integration, and other wunder-plugins than the thing that really matters; making what we publish count.

This isn’t a plea for minimalism, it’s a plea for interaction design. Topics covered include the theory of goal-directed design, mockups, prototyping, user testing at various stages, heuristic evaluation, and using feedback.
