"Rome was not built in a day and neither are accessible websites and apps." Heard this quote in @edXOnline's @w3c Intro to Web Accessibility Course and wanted to pass this along! #a11y

If you tell yourself “I want to go to more networking events,” then commit to it! I admittedly dragged my feet to get out the door this event, but as I stand here in a room full of inspiring leaders to celebrate #InternationalWomansDay, I’m so glad I got out of my comfort zone.

Infinite #scrolling can create great user experiences, but it also has weaknesses. Consider 3 alternative #DesignPatterns that may work better for your product: A load-more button, integrated pagination within a long scroll, and traditional pages nngroup.com/videos/alterna… #UX

My family thinks I make websites look good. (I mean, yeah, but as a Product Designer I am also looking at #WebAccessibility, if we're following #usability heuristics, and that we're building around the needs of the users.) How websites work > how websites look.

Don't be that person that walks into an awkwardly silent meeting without a #dadjoke prepared. Save this one for later to break the ice:

Last week I tried out #ChatGPT for the first time. Initial thoughts… 3 seconds in: “Am I doing this right?” 10 seconds in: “It actually looks like a person is typing this out.” 30 seconds in: “Crap, this is spot-on. Is #AI going to take my job?” #worksmarter #ux

3 suggestions to reduce #GunViolence: 1.) Hold parents accountable for gun-related crimes that their children under 18 commit 2.) More conversations in schools about how to handle conflicts & stop bullying 3.) Escalate red flags reported by teachers @iamwesmoore @MayorBMScott

Open source, privacy, and safety should be the default - not a feature.

What do you think, will #ChatGPT replace jobs in the #UX field? We’re talking about this at the @BaltimoreUX meetup, happening now!

Love how #JustinaMiles got people talking about how great it was to have an energetic #ASL interpreter for the #SuperBowlHalftimeShow. Hope this opens up more conversations about how to improve #accessibility. There's still so much work to do! fox5dc.com/news/rihanna-s…

I just started reading "Green Lights" by @McConaughey and immediately got hooked. SO many good quotes and concepts to think about. If you're looking for a book that will get you in the right mindset going into 2023, then read this!
