WebWord Weblog Posting

Posting Date: February 17, 2003
 

Talking About the Elements of User Experience (WebWord) -- "A positive user experience is one in which the goals of both the user and the organization that created the product are met. "Usability" is one attribute of a successful user experience, but usability alone does not make an experience positive for the user." (Comments: This is an interview with Jesse James Garrett, based on this WebWord posting. Thanks to everyone, especially JJG.)

On the cultural question raised by Zef ... there has been a lot of research on the question of how cultures differ, particularly Hofstede's Dimensions of Culture.

As to how it affects website design, I point you to this PDF.

More links in context of IA can be found here.

Perhaps you should better try http://www.amanda.com/resources/hfweb2000/AMA_CultDim.pdf in order to find the PDF. The above link seems to be broken.
