[Sigia-l] Please share your prototyping tools and methods

Hi, all.

I'm very curious about the different development approaches used by companies of all sizes, particularly
the prototyping phases. I've seen a few different approaches in companies large and small, but I'd love to
get some external info.

I created a survey to see if I could get some meaningful data. I'm curious to see if the results will validate
or contradict my own opinions on prototyping (mostly for agile).

I'm extending the survey another week or so. When I close it, I'll share the results with everyone.  Email
addresses (if you choose to leave one) will not be shared.

Here's the survey:

Thanks in advance

[Sigia-l] UX designer / IA position open

Wunderman is looking for a UXD / IA to work on a contract (1099) basis.

The position is ongoing, and you will be involved with several projects,
including clients in automotive, pharma, and bank.

I'm looking for a person who approaches user experience from a strategic
direction, able to come in early on a project and examine user needs, goals
and behaviors. You should have strong IA skills, of course, but also be good
at working with a diverse team and promoting the user-centered perspective
while helping the rest of the team do better work and have fun working with
you.

A solid foundation in usability testing & heuristic analysis is preferred,
as is the ability to present and communicate well with clients and internal
teams alike.

Please email me with your resume and/or work samples at this email or
jayson.elliot <at> wunderman.com

Thank you!
