Customer Experience + Design

We’ve all been there: A new technology emerges (cough Responsive Web Design cough), all shiny and spiffy. We get excited about it – tweet and blog our way around it for months – until our excitement and the sheer saturation from the community spills out into the wider business community. And at a certain point, […]

With the dawn of every New Year, I am hopeful that I will keep my resolution to exercise, eat better and be more patient. This year, in addition to my “usual” resolutions noted above, I am also hoping that I can become an “engaged” patient. In fact, I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my […]

Written by Janita Gaulzetti It’s a good time to be a B2B business (or is that 2 B a B2B?) – or a partner company that delivers solutions for them. Conservative estimates from analysts at Forrester Research project B2B e-commerce transactions to reach $560 billion dollars in 2013. Great news, but it also means that B2B […]

It is an 8 KB substitute for jQuery. That should answer both of those questions. In the world of Javascript libraries there are a plethora of options, but no one knows what any of them are; we all just use jQuery. jQuery is powerful, it caters to all browsers, and above all it works. However, […]

The most apparent ramification of this is the cross over between actual claims […]

It’s something many folks in my profession struggle with—explaining to other people exactly what we do. When people I don’t really know (like my father’s poker buddy, my tailor, the lady making polite chit-chat while she bags my groceries…) ask me what I do, I respond, “I help build websites.” It’s simple. People understand it. […]

Tactus Technology has introduced a new way to interact with your phone: The Tactus Tactile Layer. This morphing layer of magic goo [paraphrasing] can raise up to form actual tactile buttons on your device, and disappear again when not needed. Previously, the only form of realistic haptic feedback available to touch devices was to have […]

In life, we’re never done testing and learning about ourselves; your business is no different. I am a strong advocate in the concept of incorporating A/B testing throughout the cycle of implementing new web sites, landing pages, and just about anything that has an important call to action that can lead to big business rewards.

Based on the most recent meaningful use statistics published by CMS, the majority of Eligible Physicians submitting MU claims for Medicare have not been paid. Medicaid is only marginally better. Providers who are shopping for EMR systems must pay attention to the track record of the vendor and investigate claims these systems are MU compliant. […]

Web developers are familiar with the importance of Cascading Style Sheets when developing HTML5 apps.
