Hello members, as a recent graduate buying more books and reading these during my sparetime I have realized that I am a researcher. (By the way the book written by Bill Moggridge is amazing! `Designing Interactions`) At the moment I am jobless since most corporations wish to hire an ID, UEA or UA with several years of experience. I only have 2 years of part time usability experience. My thesis was written in co-operation with NOKIA and the topic was `preventing mobile phone interruptions`. I want to research more about how to design solutions that can prevent mobile phone interruptions. I argued in my thesis that Interruption Management as a technique would enable the caller and the callee to minimize interruptions. Reactive decision making and proactive decision making is something a user does due to the context one is in. A decent low involvement interaction design solution can also minimize the `interruption feeling`. Hence preventing mobile phone interruptions can be minimized by using Interruption Management and Low Involvement Interaction. I want to research about this and have thus decided to obtain a Ph.d in this. Can anyone help me out by giving me suggestions about other interesting perspectives on this? Maybe also tell me if any corporation is willing to help me out with an Industrial Ph.d OR any University anywhere? I am willing to relocate anywhere where I can persue this dream of mine. Thanks!
