"Usability testing: an evaluation approach to evaluation..."
This is a direct quote from the textbook for Interaction Design class. I really don't know what to say about that, except that I paid for this book which contains nothing but pseudo-techno jargon. It reminds me of manager speak in Dilbert. The funny thing about the book is they keep abbreviating Human Computer Interaction as HCI (which looks exactly like HCl in arial font) and I keep reading it as hydrochloric acid, which changes the meaning slightly.
Nobody ever checks LJ on weekends, so I'll just post some random rants here. My character in Runescape just died by a combination of high level dragon and lava. Due to a stupid aspect of the game and unluckiness I couldn't go back and get my body, so I lost probably around 2 million coins worth of stuff. My net worth has been split in half. I shouldn't have spent all that money on a pet penguin, though it was totally worth it. At least I still have my penguin. I keep wanting to play Tibia again, but it doesn't work on my computer anymore. And I should be doing homework anyway.
I had another demon dream, but this time I had died, and bargained with the demon to keep me alive, so I was trying to get out of the bargain and remain alive when the demon got fed up and tried to kill me, so I ran away and Dave killed it with a katana (which was very nice of him) except that it was inhabiting a human body at the time, so we were a bit worried about the police.
