Although it’s not common knowledge, there is a list of Laws to Interface Design (which is credited to Jef Raskin, the author of The Human Interface).  Most of us designers and developers “play it by ear” but end up forgetting a lot of these things (or just downright taking them for granted).Interface Design is more practically used when developing any type of application since that is the time when users will spend most of their interaction.  Websites can take on most of these laws, although I w ...view entire post

There’s a lot of advice out there that goes against the grain when it comes to what you’re good at.  Most people will tell you the only way to get something done right is to do it yourself, but I think there’s some serious potential to waste time if you’re not hiring the best people for a job.  If you’re the founder of your startup, chances are you’ll probably have to do a little bit of everything, especially in the beginning, but you shouldn’t be wasting time with stuff that you’re not brillia ...view entire post

A lot of entrepreneurs wonder why MySpace does so well considering the poor design.  MySpace does, after all, get more traffic according to Compete.com (although not according to Alexa) and apparently has twice as many users as Facebook.I’ve never been one to admire the design of MySpace, and I think it causes a lot of confusion for entrepreneurs who are forming their companies in the early stages because that’s when a lot of design decisions are made.  I see this question come up a lot from my ...view entire post

There’s one universal rule that every startup and every entrepreneur should live by.  About a month ago, I asked, “are unoriginal ideas bad?”  And two people answered my question: the guy who started 37 Signals, and the guy who started YouTube.And now I’m trying to convince the community of entrepreneurs that Keep It Simple should be in your list of “things we will gouge our eyes out for not doing.”  It’s not just something you do every once in a while and scratch off your to-do list.  Keep It  ...view entire post

I asked a successful entrepreneur I spoke with recently, “why did you decide to sell everything you had, buy a one way ticket to the United States, and startup a company?”  The answer was pretty simple: “I knew it was something I wanted to do, and I had no reason to put it off until later.  There’s never a perfect time to do a startup, you just have to sort of dive in and do it.”For most of the important things in life, timing can always be better.  Thinking about doing a startup?  Thinking abo ...view entire post

I’ve been pondering the pros and cons of starting up based on an unoriginal idea. It sounds bad when you hear it, as I think the startup culture has wrapped entrepreneurship in this bubble that expects new and entirely innovative solutions. But I can’t help but wonder if an unoriginal idea is underrated. Let me give you a literal example: 37 Signals is asked what their 5, 10, 20 year plan is. Basically, where they see themselves in the near and distant future. I can think of a lot of companies w ...view entire post
