Hi!

for usability testing seem pretty well described above.

To me, this really depends on what you are trying to accomplish with
your social media, forums in particular. Hopefully, you have some
control over who your bloggers are, so you can dictate to a point
what they can and cannot write about.

There are multiple schools of thought when it comes to stretching.
Some research has suggested that stretching may increase the
likelihood of muscle injury. In many cases what helps is a good warm
up. I'm not too familiar with the Wii Fit, but does it have users
engage in a warm-up and

Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
It's a lot of information to put in for something a new user knows very
little about. New experiences generally need either a very low barrier to
entry, or recommendations from others in the industry/friends etc.

I'm guessing Maurice was looking more out of curiosity than someone who

His point is still valid of course. Making the form less painful might
result in more participation. Who knows though, maybe they made it that way
