Presentation
You design experiences, but ...
* Do you have what you need to inspire that design?
* Do others have what they need to build the designed experience?
Your loathing of use cases may be a lost opportunity.
Come and learn specific tricks about writing scenarios and use cases that will
help you bridge from personas, brainstorming, design, hand-off to development
teams and performing usability tests.
You will learn something you can start using today and learn how to stop the
abuse!
