One missing detail that might redirect your ideas -- the audience is meant to be a broad group, including developers who aren't familiar with UCD or design principles. So an audience beyond the usual choir.

Thanks in advance for your ideas,
Jess

Hi folks,

As part of the Fluid Project (http://www.fluidproject.org) we've been working on a section of our wiki which we currently describe as:

"a How-to Guide filled with user-centered design (UCD) techniques you can use to learn from your users and design better user experiences.

The **** includes information on a variety of UCD practices, from performing user research and creating models (such as personas and scenarios to inform the design process) to performing user experience walkthroughs and user testing of your website or application."

Here is what it contains:

   * [Accessibility Resources]
   * [Comparative & Competitive Analysis]
   * [Contextual Inquiry]
   * [Design Patterns]
   * [Persona]
   * [User Experience Walkthroughs]
   * [User Modeling]
   * [User Testing]
   * [UX Resources]

We came up with what we thought a catchy name for it, but there has been some confusion about what exactly it is so we are considering new names. (I'm not giving you the old name so I don't prejudice you. :)) I'm wondering if folks on this list might have some suggestions on names for this which might give off good "scent" for you. Meaning, a name you'd click on because it gives you an idea of what it contains, or sounds like it would pertain to your work, etc..

If you could cc: the fluid-work list with your response, too, that'd be great. :)

Thanks for your suggestions!
Allison
