Craig Shoemaker talks with co-founder and president of Adaptive Path Jesse James Garrett about his experiences in creating the Elements of User Experience, the Visual Vocabulary and coining the term "Ajax".
Jesse and his team have worked with some of the most recognizable properties on the web. Companies such as Flickr, Blogger, BitTorrent, Microsoft and Intel have all leaned on Adaptive Path’s strength in crafting user interaction.
While many recent innovations have largely surrounded advancements
in software, Jesse tells us about Adaptive Path’s curiosity into the
new hardware that's making waves in computing to take user experiences
to the next level.

control to the light mood of a room. The below video is just under 4
minutes long and worth every second of your time.
