Public Sticky notes

Unfortunately, our field has barely evolved in that timeframe. While the computing universe around us has shifted dramatically, we’ve clung to the same methods, advice and processes. Current usability work is an artifact of an earlier computer ecosystem, out of step with contemporary realities. Usability can no longer keep up with computing: the products are too complex, too pervasive, and too easy to build. These trends demonstrate the “new realities” that are making traditional usability difficult, if not irrelevant.
