Well the numbers of people mostly students at Lancaster University who have taken part in the experiment has reached a reasonable number. It's not wildly exciting but still reasonable to do some statistics with. With higher numbers we could do any statistical test we liked. With these numbers we will have two be more selective.

Lancaster experiment continues ( badly)
I spent the morning phoning round departments they sent out emails to all the students. I've got 31 complete repsonses for 133 page checkouts. The words blood and stone come to mind. What's wrong with current students don't they like £100 ?
Time is running out. I need close to 100 partipants and I'm about 30% of the way there. If this goes on for much longer then people will forget what they saw completly. Also I can't run this experiment again here ( people would remember from last time).

Lancaster experiment going badly
We put the advert for £100 on the screens round Lancaster campus so far only 10 responses from 30000+ students for our survey after 2 days
I have a sinking feeling

Ubi - The Ubiquitous Computer
Ubi - The Ubiquitous Computer
Every time I talk to on human computer interaction folk and talk about the future of computers they always say "well in the future you will just talk to your computer and it will do it". I normally dismmiss this ( and I use voice alot) but if you really think this is true then this could be the computer for you.

Large scale project failures with relation to user interface errors
http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~johnson/papers/Rotterdam_Paper.pdf
I think this provides the differance between end user invovlement ( making them feel better) and user centered development ( the user is the heart of the project). Some Ok examples
