Usability Quote of the Day

May 23, 2012

There's something very odd going on here. If designers made completely unrealistic assumptions about the physical world when designing technology, then we would blame them (and likely sue them) for technical incompetence. Yet when they make grossly unrealistic assumptions about human nature... we don't blame the designers, we blame the unfortunate people who are just trying to do what the design requires. -- Kim Vicente, The Human Factor, p. 45.    (via interaction-design.org)

Another Enterprise Roadmap

James Melzer has developed an impressive roadmap (268Kb PDF) for Enterprise Content Management in Context. After your initial review you may be overwhelmed, as I was, but don't worry: take a deeper look and you'll find it quite useful.

James' roadmap is designed to show how enterprise content management and EIA fit together in the US federal government environment (you'll find it useful for other types of enterprises as well). It's a great way to get the diverse types of people involved on the same page: records managers, enterprise architects, information architects, librarians, content managers, IT staff, and managers.
