These are my bookmarked pages for February 24th:

  • Patterns in UX Research :: UXmatters
    One of the key objectives of user research is to identify themes or threads that are common across participants. These patterns help us to turn our data into insights about the underlying forces at work, influencing user behavior.
  • Stencils for Interface Design / GUI / BetaCampus
    As you can see below, there are stencils for Microsoft Visio, Adobe InDesign and OmniGraffle. If you know resources where people can download stencils for any program used in the design, or perhaps you've created your own collection, then please, you can share these resources in comments.
  • UI Patterns and Techniques: Progressive Disclosure
    s the user sees the task unfolding directly in front of them, via a dynamically-growing UI, they can form a correct mental model of the task more quickly and easily. There are none of the awkward context switches that separate wizard screens impose: when a user is yanked out of their workflow into a rigid set of modal wizard screens, it feels like more of an imposition than if the UI had stayed within the user's working context.
  • RapidRabb.it – Accelerate your Prototyping
    apidRabb.it Prototype Creator: Browser-application for collaborative creation of clickable UI-prototypes. Enables your Rapid Prototyping.
  • Wrap Your Presents Well « Usability Post

Nice software wrapped in beautiful hardware wrapped in great packaging.
