If you want better UX, stop looking at your design team and whichever new sexy UI you’ve seen this week, take a long hard look at your organisation and whether it caring about UX is part of its cultural make up and what evidence there is, beneath the interface, of this being true. - http://extraface.tumblr.com/post...

But here’s Bakshy’s most crucial finding: Although we’re more likely to share information from our close friends, we still share stuff from our weak ties—and the links from those weak ties are the most novel links on the network.

Ross may represent the final abandonment of hip-hop’s mandate to “keep it real,” a concept that goes by different names now but has not gone away. Perhaps listeners know that this is a version of “Miami Vice,” a show that Ross claims to have been inspired by. The appeal is less some kind of documentary thrill than Ross’s ability to transmit the... - http://extraface.tumblr.com/post...
Buddy Ryan’s “Polish Goal Line” defense called for three extra linebackers, for a total of 14 men, in late situations with the opposing team knocking on the doorstep. The idea was to make it impossible to score, even at the cost of a penalty flag. The worst a flag could do was halve the distance to go, but for a goal-line stand, that’s a... - http://extraface.tumblr.com/post...
