"“Thought you might appreciate knowing that I'm already making converts. In a meeting today, someone asked me for a 'redesign' for a small section of their site. Instead of just slapping code out there, we're going to meet for a half hour of paper prototyping with a real user. My manager was very impressed with the approach, and I've already convinced him of a) the value of rapid prototyping, and b) the speed with which we can get it done. I've also asked our web marketing lead to get me involved in our meetings with our outside design firm. I'm on fire! Thanks so much for the course. It's only Monday, and it's already given me an entirely different way of doing my job.” - by Dan DiFlavis – March 2010 Mini-Masters UXD Course".
