Indigo Mobile Study - Windows Phone 8
April 4, 2013
Indigo is competing directly with Amazon.ca. Not having a mobile presence is a little bit nuts in my opinion.
To start off, I’d like to take a moment to describe the market.
US smartphone market fun facts
I realize that the US market is not the same as the Canadian market, but they’re pretty close so these statistics are relevant enough for my exploration. Generally the Canadian mobile adoption is stronger so the %’s below would be slightly higher if anything. These stats were found via comScore and a few fun info-graphics I found.

5 UX Factors Critical to Delivering User Delight
September 26, 2015
jeremylist:
Creating a great experience is hard work. When you consider the research, design, validation and execution, it’s no wonder most organizations struggle. Luckily, great technology companies are starting to recognize the value of UX. Apple has shown us that if you design something well, user engagement – and ultimately profitability – will soon follow. (Thank you Apple.)
Although it’s hard to nail the UX, it’s extremely rewarding when you get it right. Here are five UX factors critical to delivering user delight.

The Reinvention of Chapters
March 25, 2013
A few days ago my wife said “Chapters should open up a home store”. My response was, “why, yes they should”. That said, if it were me, I’d do it differently…

Why doesn't Facebook eat LinkedIn?
March 20, 2013
A few months ago a smart gentleman from Facebook came to speak to our Sr. Management team. It was a great talk that I very much appreciated. During this time I pointedly asked him the question “why doesn’t Facebook make a play for LinkedIn?”. His answer to me was that if Facebook does something, they do it right, and it doesn’t make sense for them today. I was honestly a little surprised by his answer. I was expecting something closer to a dodge but with his answer, it’s obvious to me that the discussions are happening at Facebook.

The Media Server of my Dreams
February 6, 2013
I have a media server and I generally like it. What I don’t like is how complicated and time consuming it is get the content backed up and how difficult it is for me to access my content on all of my devices. As with anything that annoys me, I’ve decided how I’d do it differently if it were my product. The following is my vision for a media server that I would happily buy. My hope is that someone with the ability to make this vision become reality will read this and get inspired…

Build vs Buy

About a year ago somebody asked me my philosophy regarding build vs buy. If you’re not sure what I’m talking about it’s the concept of building out product functionality – or integrating existing products. Generally as designers...

Universal Exercise Interface
February 27, 2013
Current exercise machines are dumb. Not that I’m complaining, I simply feel that it’s time for them to evolve.
I recently purchased a Water Rower rowing machine and I’m happily rowing every morning. My frustration with it comes from the fact that I can’t share my workout via Facebook or Twitter and I have no idea how far I’ve rowed this year, how I’m trending and how I compare to Olympians.
Because of this frustration I started thinking about a better way. My opinion is that all exercise machines should continue to have fancy displays that tell you how far you’re go...

Can Technology Make Working-from-Home Work?
June 10, 2013
Since Marissa Mayer took over Yahoo, I’ve heard a lot of discussion and debate about the concept of working from home. I have a lot experience on both sides, and can confidently say that I whole heartedly agree with her decision. There’s no question that people are more effective at work, surrounded by team members. In my experience, exceptions are rare.
