Re: The Essential Characteristics of User Experience (a language of critique)

Thanks for that articulation, Richard. It seems to me that you're on
the right track. One thing you may be missing, though, is context.

A good user experience is optimized for the context in which it will
be used. Like building a mobile app that takes advantage of the
user's roving physical location, designing security features for an
ATM in a public space, or even making lightweight web pages for users
in developing countries. What we design is not used in a vacuum, and
an otherwise great product will fail if context isn't considered.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
