It depends on what You mean by "profile". 1. Personas are based on research and synthesized from data - not creative fiction 2. Personas are about goals, desires, and limitations of the user - not pure demographics 3. Personas are tools for UCD 4. It's neither important nor recomended to create one persona for one real user group 5. Form is function and there are best practices. -- Szymon Błaszczyk +48 609 649 819 http://2ia.pl | http://blaszczyk.name | http://przypadki.pl ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
