Awesome presentations by @nickbollen_ , @denise__coronel and Dan Stark! Great to hear some of the interesting projects they’ve been working on and a fantastic event to round out the year. Thanks to @HappyCo and @kimsd for hosting. See you all next year!
Super excited for @nickbollen_ to kick off @ProductOfADL’s 10x10 series tonight! It’s been great to see this group start from humble gatherings over a beer to running events of this size within such a short time. Cheers to @chris_mrtn & @Ganticdotco for laying the foundations 🙌

I’ve been arguing for a while we need to shift the entire language. Product team ›› experience team. Product manager ›› experience manager. Product owner ›› experience owner. Product designer ›› experience designer. Product developer ›› experience developer.
Isn’t it a little outdated to focus so much on “product teams” (dev, design, PM) rather than “experience teams?” Sometimes marketing & support tools achieve a “product” goal better than building software does. A “product team” risks being another silo.

Designers (& developers interested in design): I highly recommend you watch this video by @steveschoger on his approach to refactoring a UI. You will learn so much in just 40 mins. I promise you. It's such a great presentation. youtube.com/watch?v=7Z9rrryI…

Did you know you can link your @googleanalytics data up to your @caniuse account? No more manually cross-referencing or best-guessing browser support for your site—decide based on real data.

It warms my heart that learning the business is André's first piece of advice. All 5 tips are right on. Important read for UX designers everywhere. "5 things I learned working as The UX Team of One" - @asn_nascimento link.medium.com/lnSjkzi8YT

Soon, after you finish products like Tide detergent, Crest toothpaste, or Häagen Dazs ice cream, you'll ship the empty container back via UPS. It will get cleaned and reused for the next customer. f-st.co/kb6sbOt

The most suspenseful and exciting depiction of fluctuating World GDP rates over the last 57 years. My 6yo watched this 3 times.

The best digital products are the ones that solve a human problem—and the best digital design teams are the ones that keep that human at the center of their process, from early ideas through final build. ideo.to/SG0s7t
